please write me correct code how to enter values using procedure.
thank

In this procedure you have used i as in paramater. You can not assign a value to in parameter . Rewrite the procedure as follows

create or replace procedure ins
AS
i number :=1;
BEGIN
LOOP
insert into abc(a) values (i);
i :=i+1;
EXIT WHEN i>11;
END LOOP;
COMMIT;
END ins;

The above procedure will insert 10 recods.

Try this
set serveroutput on
create or replace procedure ins
AS
j number;
BEGIN
j:=1;
LOOP
insert into abc (a)
values (j);
j :=j+1;
EXIT WHEN j>10;
END LOOP
commit;
END ins;

exec ins;

select * from abc;

If you want to insert 10 values starting with number that was passed as parameter write it as follows
create or replace procedure ins (x in number)
AS
i number :=1;
y number;
BEGIN
y := x;
LOOP
insert into abc(a) values (x);
y :=y+1;
i :=i+1;
EXIT WHEN i>11;
END LOOP;
COMMIT;
END ins;

But do not use same identifier as in paramter and variable.
