I was perusing Richard Foote's Index Internals PDF from a link supplied by Ed Stevens here.

Can you spot the deliberate mistake? Wink
SQL> CREATE TABLE test_delete (id NUMBER, name VARCHAR2(10));
Table created.
SQL> CREATE INDEX test_delete_idx ON test_delete (name);
Index created.
SQL> INSERT INTO test_delete VALUES (1, 'BOWIE');
1 row created.
SQL> COMMIT;
Commit complete.
SQL> DELETE test_delete WHERE id = 1;
1 row updated.
SQL> SELECT file_id,block_id FROM dba_extents WHERE segment_name='TEST_DELETE_IDX';
FILE_ID BLOCK_ID
---------- --------------- 5 3441
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM DUMP DATAFILE 5 BLOCK 3442;
System altered.

3441 vs 3442.
The first block is the segment header, we can also deduce it is a MSSM tablespace otherwise he should add 3 (2 levels of bitmap block). Smile

Correct Smile

And I would like to stress that this is not a criticism against Richard Foote who I respect greatly. We all make mistakes!

I saw Mr Foote give a lecture at the ODTUG KScope convention in June. He is a edifying and entertaining speaker but he doesn't use live demonstrations, he relies on slides.

My style is the opposite: I do everything live. Of course, my demo's sometimes go spectacularly wrong. Particularly when lecturing on SQL tuning, which means playing games with the optimizer. Dangerous: the optimizer is cleverer than me. But it does mean that I can adjust the lecture content dynamically in response to questions, and people seem to find it entertaining.
