I would like to get some feed backs, since i am very new to Oracle world.

If Datatype is 'date' and no date is stored in the field, how is the datae acutally stored in Oracle? As nulls or Zeroes? This will happen for field which are not 'required' in order to write a record.
How is the date in Oracle actually stored? Are they represented as an offset from a base date/time?

I would appriciate your help.

thanks
