In this question, the codes are provided as below. You are not required to write the code, rather, you are required to run the code and understand what happened to the program, and answer the following questions.

1/ After copying the code and running it, do you think that the program has inserted a new record to the departments table ? Briefly write down the reasons that help you to get that conclusion.

2/ After reading the error message in the output, which part of the codes caused this error?

3/ Please change the provided codes, make the program run without error. Write down the changed part only (no more one line).

CODE:

DECLARE

error_code number;

error_message varchar2 (255);

dept_id departments.department_id%TYPE := 777;

dept_name departments.department_name%TYPE := 'Deleteme';

dept_mgr_id departments.manager_id%TYPE ;

dept_loc_id departments.location_id%TYPE := 1700;

BEGIN

INSERT INTO departments

VALUES (dept_id, dept_name, dept_mgr_id, dept_loc_id);

DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE ( 'A new department is created. ' || CHR (10) ||

'Its ID is ' || dept_id || ', its name is ' || dept_name ||', ' ||

'its manager id is '|| NVL (dept_mgr_id, 'Not assigned') ||

', its location ID is ' || dept_loc_id ||'.');

Exception

error_code := SQLCODE;

error_message := SQLERRM;

DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE (CHR (10) ||'Print from error handler, '||

CHR(10)|| 'The error code is :' || error_code || '.'||

CHR(10)|| 'The mesg is ; ' || error_message || '.' );
