By calling a procedure with some input parameter it returns resulset.
say the resultset from procedure is
node  branch leaf

111   1        7

111   2        7


111   3        7


now take the maximum branch i.e, 3

select that node at random from exiting table A that have 3 rows.say there are 3 rows and the node that have 3 rows are
1 and 2

pick any random rowset from table A
and replace node by 111 and the leaf value where fetch value of resultset = branch of table A...

When updating the values fetching values from resultset can go in only one node (1 or 2).so either rows of node 1 or 2 will be updated. 3 rows should be updated



Thanks

You have asked enough questions and been given enough responses to know what is expected of you now. Please follow the guidelines and what you have already been told.

when calling proc dummy Refcursor returns

Node     Branch   leaf  v_col1 v_col2   v_col3
1	1			6	6789	3456		999
1        2			7	999		0			1	
1        3			8	666		999			8


Which indicates the node 1 has maximum 3 branches


Now there is a table node_list where some combinations are being stored for node
NODE	BRANCHES	COL3	COL4	COL5	COL6
7		1			456		789		999		222
7		2			466		779		999		223
7		3			456		789		999		224
2		1			456		789		999		228
2		2			466		779		999		227
3		1			456		789		999		225
3		2			466		779		999		222
3		3			456		789		999		224
4		1			456		789		990		224
					


No In my main procedure I call the procedure which returns the above resultset
for some input parameters.

for some input values it may be more or less then 3 brances for node


Now get the node (in this example it will be 7 or 3) randomly from node_list which
have maximum brances equals to the max branch for the node returned by refcursor above.


replace the node for those 3 rows by node variable retunrned from fetch refcursor
and also col3 by v_col1, COL4 BY v_col2 COL5 BY V_COL3 ,COL6 (without any change)
into a new table.

But for each loop while inserting it should not pick entry from rows of node 3
if we picked node 7.

When we say 'formatted' we include such trivial details as actually getting your numbers into columns, and under the correct column heading.

NoW In my main procedure I call the procedure which returns the above resultset (REFCURSOR RESULT)for some input parameters.
[for some input values it may be more or less then 3 brances for node in refcursor resultset.]

In main proc :
 dummy1(in_1,in_2,rc1);







Now get the node (in this example it will be 7 or 3) randomly from node_list which
have maximum brances equals to the max branch for the node returned by refcursor above.

In this case it will be 7 or 3 which has 3 branches each.Pick those rows from node_list table which have node 7 or 3 but for the entire insertion loop it should fetch column value of those rows which node=7 ( or 3..not mixure of both)


Now, replace the node for those 3 rows by node variable retunrned from fetch refcursor
and also col3 by v_col1, COL4 BY v_col2 COL5 BY V_COL3 ,COL6 (without any change)
into a new table.

But for each loop while inserting it should not pick entry from rows of node 3
if we picked node 7.

Sir, how can I replace this 3 and can use the maximum branch returned from refcursor? or is there any other way?


SELECT NODE into v_node2  FROM node_list  WHERE node in (        
                             SELECT node
                             FROM (        
                                     SELECT node FROM node_list 
                                     HAVING MAX(branches)=[COLOR=red]3[/COLOR] 
/* 3 ismax value returned from refcursor for branches. 
How to get last value/count for branch from refcursor */
                                     GROUP BY node
                                     ORDER BY DBMS_RANDOM.value) 
                              WHERE ROWNUM = 1)
]

Icant use this inside loop for each fetch as it will select different set of rows as there will be selection on random node.
Please help!

I'd love to help, if I had the first clue what you were trying to do.

What you need to do is to try and forget everything you know about the problem, and read that post as I'm reading it - as the only source of knowledge that I have about your problem.

If you could show us a sample output that you expect, then that would help.

should give 7 or 3 [ as for this two nodes only maximum branches is 3 which is equal to
max vaue of branch returned by resultset]

If you want such a quick response, pay a consultant. You are not paying anyone here as far as I know, so they do not owe you anything in a reasonable amount of time.

Using Bulk collect I tried something like this way ( This will not work but to demonstrate what I tried )

DECLARE
RC1  SYS_REFCURSOR;
TYPE T2REC IS RECORD ( V_LOC_ID VARCHAR2(5));
/* define if there are more  to fetch n number of variable */
Type TYP_RFCUR2 IS TABLE of T2REC INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
RECREF2 TYP_RFCUR2;
BEGIN
dummy250509 ('IND',RC1);
FETCH RC1 BULK COLLECT INTO RECREF2;
dbms_output.put_line('Count  '||RECREF2.COUNT);
cntr:=RECREF2.COUNT;
put this value in the query to select random node where the max page for any node in node_list =
max page of the resultset returned
[SELECT node into v_node2
                             FROM (        
                                     SELECT node FROM node_list 
                                     HAVING MAX(branches)= cntr
                                     GROUP BY node
                                     ORDER BY DBMS_RANDOM.value) 
                              WHERE ROWNUM = 1 ; ]


CLOSE RC1;
for i in RECREF2.FIRST..RECREF2.LAST LOOP
/* Put the insert logic */
INSERT INTO TEMP_TBL (col1,col2,..)
SELECT ( RECREF2(i).v_loc_id, col2... ) from dummy where ...;

END LOOP;
END;
/

None of the code you've posted so far contains anything that would do that - so how are we supposed to know what's going on?

@prachij - please try to understand. we do not know anything about the problem that you are trying to solve other than what you have told us.
We do not know your table structures
We do not know your data
We do not know what you are trying to do
We do not know the significance of a node having 3 branches
We do not know why you want a random value
we do not know what code you are running.

The reason we do not know this is because you seem incapable of telling us.

Sit down, and describe your problem in a simple way.

Tell us what bits of the problem you can't do.

You've shown us the data that your ref cursor returns, and two different sets of output data that you could expect to see - where do the values in the output data that aren't from the ref cursor come from?


I'm sorry not to be more help, but I have a day job to do, and I only have a limited amount of time. If you can make it easy for me to help you, I wil - otherwise you're on your own
