Script Name Checking Real Execution Plan(s) of Separately Querying COUNT(*|1|id|flag) on 4 different TEST3 Table(s)
Visibility Unlisted - anyone with the share link can access
Description This demo usually uses to check the real execution plan of separately querying COUNT(*), COUNT(1), COUNT(id) and COUNT(flag) on 4 different tables 'TEST3', 'TEST3_PK', 'TEST3_BI' and 'TEST3_PK_BI'. By the way those tables are going to be dynamically created by using several oracle PL/SQL procedures. I just use the standard SQL syntax 'CREATE TABLE' to create my TEST3 tables with two physical properties (SEGMENT CREATION IMMEDIATE and NOLOGGING) and a table property (NO PARALLEL) and then also create corresponding PRIMARY KEY or BITMAP INDEX on those different TEST3 tables. Finally inserting several test data to my all TEST3 tables via using the hint 'append'. On one hand, each table all has the same two columnns both 'id' and 'flag', column 'id' is continuously increasing from 1 to '1e4' and column 'flag' has 4 types of duplicate values 'low', 'mid', 'high' and 'unknown'; on the other hand, table 'TEST3' has neither PRIMARY KEY nor BITMAP INDEX, table 'TEST3_PK' has only PRIMARY KEY, table 'TEST3_BI' has only BITMAP INDEX, and table 'TEST3_PK_BI' has both PRIMARY KEY and BITMAP INDEX.

Statement 1

In this procedure I use 'q quoting' to concatenate the VARCHAR2 variable creating 'TEST3' table, meanwhile after finishing creating 'TEST3' table and also gathering the statistics of that table to ensure the accuracy of corresponding SQL statements execution plan.

Using a procedure "crt_tab_test3" of PL/SQL to dynamically create 'TEST3' table containing 1e4 lines data

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE crt_tab_test3 
AS 
   v_num   NUMBER; 
   v_sql_1 VARCHAR2(2000);

   v_sql_3 VARCHAR2(2000);

   v_num := 1e4; 
   v_sql_1 := 'DROP TABLE test3 PURGE'; 
   v_sql_2 := q'[CREATE TABLE test3 (

                 )

   v_sql_3 := q'[INSERT /*+ append */ INTO test3

In this procedure I use 'q quoting' to concatenate the VARCHAR2 variable creating 'TEST3_BI' table, meanwhile after finishing creating 'TEST3_BI' table and also gathering the statistics of that table to ensure the accuracy of corresponding SQL statements execution plan.
