Karl is right. Oracle internally converts the assignment into equivalent SQL statement. Click here, to have a look at the test.

Karl is right. Oracle internally translates the assignment into equivalent SQL statement. Read this for a test case.

i assume that ‘l_seq := oe.orders_seq.nextval;’ is translated/executed internally to ‘SELECT oe.orders_seq.nextval INTO l_seq FROM DUAL;’
did you trace it?

I tried if it was possible to assign a sequence to the default expression of a column, but it appears this feature is really restricted to PL/SQL.
As I see it now, many features are small tweaks to pl/sql.
