(p_tab_name IN VARCHAR2) RETURN BOOLEAN IS BEGIN DROP TABLE p_tab_name; RETURN
TRUE; EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN RETURN FALSE; END; Why will this procedure not
compile successfully? (1) Points Because you can never drop a table from inside
a function Because the PL/SQL compiler cannot check if the argument of p_tab_nam
