execute immediate IS dynamic sql, it is just a new simpler synthax.

SDW.WORLD:sys>set serveroutput on
SDW.WORLD:sys>declare
  2      v_count number;
  3  begin
  4     execute immediate 'select count(*) from dba_objects' into v_count;
  5     dbms_output.put_line ('Count:'||v_count);
  6  end;
  7  /

Does anyone have any examples on use of EXECUTE IMMEDIATE
starting from small little ones?

Is EXECUTE IMMEDIATE more efficient than Dynamic SQL?
It certainly appears simpler to syntax, but would it be
wise to use it or prefer the stability of dynamic SQL?

thx
