Oracle supplies an excellent set of sample schemas that you can use to play
with a lot of the different functionality. If you successfully installed
Oracle go to the OracleHome / demo / schema folder and check the
mksample.sql script. This will set the schemas up for you. In Oracle's
documentation (included on one of your CDs ) is a complete book on the
sample schemas called "Sample Schemas".
