http://tahiti.oracle.com has all 9i docs including the sql reference manual. The paragraph on SELECT would typically contain the correct answer.
Or is this a quiz question, where the correct responder earns something?
I don't think so, you are probably just too lazy to type the URL

Please do your homework the next time before asking mere doc questions.
