Understanding Oracle Sequences and Gaps in Identity Column Values In this article, we’ll delve into the world of Oracle sequences and explore why they sometimes produce gapless values, but not always. Introduction to Oracle Sequences Oracle sequences are a way to generate unique numbers for use as primary keys or identity columns. They’re based on a sequence value that’s guaranteed to be unique, ensuring data integrity in databases. When you create an identity column, Oracle uses this sequence value behind the scenes to populate it with values.

Append to Entries in a Dataframe Introduction In this article, we will explore the process of appending characters to entries in a dataframe. This can be useful in various data manipulation tasks, such as adding timestamps or prefixes to column names. We will also discuss different approaches and techniques for achieving this goal. Understanding Dataframes A dataframe is a two-dimensional table of data with rows and columns. It is similar to an Excel spreadsheet or a SQL table.
