O.K.
I'm really hoping somebody out there can clear up all my confusion about Oracle.
I'm an engineer wanting to make a caeer change to computer programming and Oracle developers seem to be in good demand.
I'm wondering is it possible to learn Oracle on a Mac? I've been told that I should first learn SQL...could somebody please explain to me the relationship between SQL and Oracle. Is it possible to learn SQL on a Mac.
I'm also confused how you can even run an Oracle program on a PC...how does personal Oracle work? Do you have to link up with Oracle server to access the database?
I am also interested in internet programming and I'm wondering if Oracle can be used on the internet. If not...what database programs are generally used on the net (or in Web sites).
I'm also interested in working from home. Would this be possible as an Oracle programmer? Would I need Windows or NT in order to do this?
Any answers to the above questions would be much appreciated!!!
Thank you
