If you have a few simple database queries, you can put them into a single query (even if there is no relationship between them)
E.g:
SELECT NAME
FROM EMP
WHERE EMP_NO = 1234;
SELECT NAME
FROM DPT
WHERE DPT_NO = 10 ;
SELECT NAME
FROM CAT
WHERE CAT_TYPE = ‘RD’;
3 above may be combined into a query:
SELECT E.NAME , D.NAME , C.NAME
FROM CAT C , DPT D , EMP E,DUAL X
WHERE NVL(‘X’,X.DUMMY) = NVL(‘X’,E.ROWID(+))
AND NVL(‘X’,X.DUMMY) = NVL(‘X’,D.ROWID(+))
AND NVL(‘X’,X.DUMMY) = NVL(‘X’,C.ROWID(+))
AND E.EMP_NO(+) = 1234
AND D.DEPT_NO(+) = 10
AND C.CAT_TYPE(+) = ‘RD’;
