Is Oracle any good?
I'm hearing quite a lot about Oracle, and I've had a very brief look into it, but I'm wondering about others' opinions. What're the advantages/disadvantages, etc?

Well, it's not a language, is that what you meant?

Oracle is a very nice database, and very large with a lot of intricate details. The down side is, it cost a bit of money, so the free alternative would be MySQL. If you want to code in Oracle, learn PL/SQL.

What Infinite Recursion said… Oracle is awesome, but extremely expensive... so I would recommend MySQL.

Yo, I won't be talking about DaWei if I was you. He is probably, if not, the most most experienced programmer I've meet. So watch it man!
