Why they choosed PL/SQL for programming language?
I cannot understand.

Stored PL/SQL is faster because it parses only ones and resides in main
memory and further request doesn't require re-parsing.
For example if a 100 line SQL statement accessed by 100 clients. It has
to compile 100 x 100 times. Same thing can be achieved in PL/SQL block in
compiling only once.

Rich family of In-built function also makes it faster as compare to other
languages.

ItÂ’s good to perform DML operations in PL/SQL rather than using methods
of other languages, as they require heavy processing to perform the same
actions.

It should be noted that the same advantages hold for Java Stored Procedures 
under Oracle 8i and up.
