Table related column position change is not possible in Oracle ?

Ex:- Employee table created with 5 columns

Name: Column1

Number: 2

DOB: 3

Salary: 4

Age: 5

And later we want to move age column as below so,

Name

Number

Age

DOB

Salary

is it possible or not? if yes which database version support this option?

It is very much possible in other programming languages but not sure in Oracle

Howdy, Stranger!
