Re: how to call sql code without function

You can think of a database as a filesystem as well. That is do some
processing, store the result in temp table, do some more, etc,etc then merge
and process temp tables to arrive at some result.

Just as in the case of filesystem, if you are operating in a concurrent
evironment, you need to fence against that. That is it is possible that at a
given time two sessions will arrive at the same processing point where they
need to create such temp tables.

The other solution which I prefer is to write a stored procedure to solve
this. Or get creative with nested and complex SQL queries.
