What is the difference between a procedure and a function in ORACLE

Published by: Rinku (8/30/2008)

What is the difference between a procedure and function in oracle. I read in one of the oracle user guides that they are basically the same except the return type and the guide used the words procedure and function interchangably. So, where can i use functions and procedures to take advantage of their functionality.
