The return value of a function in Oracle PL/SQL can be used as input for other functions or as parameters for procedures. It can also be stored in variables or used in conditional statements to control the flow of the program. Here are some common operations that can be performed on the return value of a function:
DECLARE
l_result NUMBER;
BEGIN
l_result := my_function();
--do something with l_result
END;
DECLARE
l_result1 NUMBER;
l_result2 NUMBER;
BEGIN
l_result1 := my_function();
l_result2 := my_other_function(l_result1);
--do something with l_result2
END;
DECLARE
l_result NUMBER;
BEGIN
l_result := my_function();
IF l_result > 0 THEN
--do something
ELSE
--do something else
END IF;
END;
DECLARE
l_result NUMBER;
BEGIN
l_result := my_function();
my_procedure(l_result);
END;
