Although true, I find "keyword" a bit too generic. It is a sqlplus command to set a value to a replacement parameter.

Hi,

  DEFINE is a command of SQL * PLUS Tool. 

  This is only valid in SQL * PLUS. 

  With DEFINE command, user can define the session variables.

  Ex:   SQL> DEFINE  pi=22/7

         SQL> select  &pi  from  dual;

         Output:-   3.14285714

Regards,

Sailaja
