PL/SQL Reserved Words

The words listed in this appendix are reserved by PL/SQL. That is, they have a special syntactic meaning to PL/SQL. So, you should not use them to name program objects such as constants, variables, or cursors. Some of these words (marked by an asterisk) are also reserved by SQL. So, you should not use them to name schema objects such as columns, tables, or indexes.
