SQL is a structured query language that is used to retrieve and
manipulate data as well as create and modify objects in a
database. There are some capabilities for logic in SQL
statements such as case and decode statements, but it is very
limited. PL/SQL is a procedural language that has many more
logic options available such as if-else statements and for loops.
However, PL/SQL isn’t very useful without SQL to retrieve and
manipulate the data. For instance, you can use SQL to retrieve
a value from a table and based on the value; use an if-else
statement to choose to update a value in another table or not.
PL/SQL also has a few other features that make it more efficient
than just SQL alone. One being that PL/SQL transmits multiple
SQL statements at one time in a block whereas SQL sends each
statement separately thus saving bandwidth. Another is that
PL/SQL that is stored in the database as a program unit is stored
in executable form and is cached in memory making it more
efficient to run (Casteel, 2013, pp. 3-4).

Structured Query Language (SQL) is used primarily to conduct
various actions within a database. These actions are typically
categorized as data manipulation (DML), data definition (DDL),
querying, and transaction control. DML includes actions like

2. insertion, update, deletion. DDL includes, alteration, creation,
and dropping. Queries are performed via select statements, and
transaction control can be conducted via commit and rollback
statements (Casteel, 2013, p. 15).
PL/SQL is Oracle's procedural language extension of SQL.
Procedural languages are used to design logic statements which
control decision making and the flow of information which
