Some doubts)

Hello gurus,

I need some help here. I am trying to get some understanding of the following:-
(Pardon my stupidity, if you can call this)

1. What are chained rows?
2. What is index/table partitioning?
3. In case of getting a table fragmentation report, what does the following have a physical meaning:-

pct_free ?

pct_used?

it says Rows = 130750,?
 but my actual table has got more no. rows than that, how did that happen, even though I just ANALYSED the table, I did a Estinate statistics though, does it matter, not a compute statistics.

block_alloc?

block hwm?

MB alloc?

MB hwm?

%hwm bytes used?

TIA raja
