Using calculated column names in SELECT query

Vysakh Suresh - 3035408Apr 13 2016 — edited Apr 14 2016

Dear All,

I created a table test_table_1..

CREATE TABLE test_table_1(col_1_val NUMBER(20));

Inserted values into it..

INSERT INTO test_table_1

VALUES (1);

We can select value from table as..

SELECT col_1_val

FROM test_table_1;

To get the same output, Can we select the column name col_1_val from test_table_1 like..

SELECT col_<an expression/formula which evaluates to result 1>_val

FROM test_table_1;

Thanks and Regards,

Vysakh Suresh
