SQL Interview Question | Procedure Vs Function
Stored Procedure
A Stored Procedure is nothing more than prepared SQL code that you save so you can reuse the code over and over again. So if you think about a query that you write over and over again, instead of having to write that query each time you would save it as a Stored Procedure and then just call the Stored Procedure to execute the SQL code that you saved as part of the Stored Procedure.
