I would love to bitch slap the idiot that wrote this:
"It is poor programming practice to have a function return multiple
values."
Gee, by that same token it must be "poor programming practice" for a
query to return multiple rows, or multiple records for that matter.
Apparently a function should just return 1 or 0. Then you can use
another function to string the 0's and 1's together, then another
function to convert them to hex, then another to convert them to
ASCII, then another to concatinate all the values, then another
un-concatinate the values, and finally one to bitch slap the moron
that is so f'ing stupid that he can't see the need for a function to
return multiple values. And that ladies and genitalmens is why Oracle
is st00pid...
