🆓Warning
Always make the RETURN statement the last statement of your function.
Reason
The reader expects the return statement to be the last statement of a function.
Example
Non-Compliant Example
create or replace package body my_package is
function my_function(
in_from in pls_integer
,in_to in pls_integer
) return pls_integer
deterministic
is
l_ret pls_integer;
begin
l_ret := in_from;
<<for_loop>>
for i in in_from..in_to
loop
l_ret := l_ret + i;
if i = in_to then
return l_ret;
end if;
end loop for_loop;
end my_function;
end my_package;
