缺少'=>`右括号错误

Question

I am getting the error after writing the below code for a simple insert..select stmnt . I am confused as there seems nothing wrong with syntax .

INSERT INTO dimension_tab(FACT_1_ID,FACT_2_ID,FACT_3_ID,FACT_4_ID,SALES_VALUE)
SELECT TRUNC(DBMS_RANDOM.value(low => 1, high => 3)) AS fact_1_id,
       TRUNC(DBMS_RANDOM.value(low => 1, high => 6)) AS fact_2_id,
       TRUNC(DBMS_RANDOM.value(low => 1, high => 11)) AS fact_3_id,
       TRUNC(DBMS_RANDOM.value(low => 1, high => 11)) AS fact_4_id,
       ROUND(DBMS_RANDOM.value(low => 1, high => 100), 2) AS sales_value
FROM   dual
CONNECT BY level <= 1000;
COMMIT;

Answer 1

You are using a valid syntax, but as you are using oracle 10g it will not support => , So you'll have to replace (low => 1, high => 3) with (1, 3) .

Try like this,

INSERT INTO dimension_tab
SELECT TRUNC(DBMS_RANDOM.value( 1,  3)) AS fact_1_id,
       TRUNC(DBMS_RANDOM.value( 1,  6)) AS fact_2_id,
       TRUNC(DBMS_RANDOM.value( 1,  11)) AS fact_3_id,
       TRUNC(DBMS_RANDOM.value( 1,  11)) AS fact_4_id,
       ROUND(DBMS_RANDOM.value( 1,  100), 2) AS sales_value
FROM   dual
CONNECT BY LEVEL <= 1000;

Answer 2

Syntax of DBMS_RANDOM.VALUE is

DBMS_RANDOM.VALUE(
  low  IN  NUMBER,
  high IN  NUMBER
)

So you can use like this...

INSERT INTO dimension_tab (FACT_1_ID,FACT_2_ID,FACT_3_ID,FACT_4_ID,SALES_VALUE)
SELECT TRUNC(DBMS_RANDOM.value( 1,  3)) AS fact_1_id,
       TRUNC(DBMS_RANDOM.value( 1,  6)) AS fact_2_id,
       TRUNC(DBMS_RANDOM.value( 1,  11)) AS fact_3_id,
       TRUNC(DBMS_RANDOM.value( 1,  11)) AS fact_4_id,
       ROUND(DBMS_RANDOM.value( 1,  100), 2) AS sales_value
FROM   dual
CONNECT BY LEVEL <= 1000;
COMMIT;
