It's funny. There are 9 pics shown, and 10 names listed. Someone didn't want his/her pic on the cover - the real programmer (introvert/socially inept/lack of personal hygiene/whatever)

I think Ms. PL married Mr. SQL. So it should really be Ms. PL-SQL but dashes cause problems in some computer languages.Originally posted by Mapraputa Is:
Hm, is PL/SQL one author or two? I know (better would be say "knew") both PL and SQL and they are very different um... authors. Or maybe PL is the first name and SQL the last?
