Hi,
Functions can return only one value, which is returned to the calling body by using the RETURN statement. The data type of the value being returned needs to be specified.

Also, check the following thread,

Yes u can use OUT mode in functions.

But the only restriction is the function can't be called directly at SQL> prompt.

It must be called from within an anonymous block.

Hi Arun,
Are you getting any error?
If you are getting error as 'table does not exist' then give
insert into <schemaname>.x values('java',322);
instead of
insert into x values('java',322);
The rest is correct, the function should compile.

Cheers
