What is the RESULT keyword in PLSQL?

Question

In the Oracle Documentation, I found the RESULT keyword, but I could not find the documentation about this.

Answer 1

There are two references to RESULT in the main index, but they do not lead to anything interesting (code examples for Transparent Gateway ).

Of course, RESULT is not included in the V $ RESERVED_WORD view. In addition, we can use RESULT in our own code without problems:

 SQL> declare 2 result pls_integer; 3 begin 4 result := some_number; 5 dbms_output.put_line(result); 6 dbms_output.put_line('That' NumberWang!'); 7 end; 8 / 16912 That NumberWang! PL/SQL procedure successfully completed. SQL> 

tl; dr Forget it.
