How can local variables be used in MySQL stored procedure?
Local variables are those variables that are declared within the stored procedure. They are only valid within the BEGIN…END block where they are declared and can have any SQL data type. To demonstrate it, we are creating the following procedure −
mysql> DELIMITER // ;
mysql> Create Procedure Proc_Localvariables()
-> BEGIN
-> DECLARE X INT DEFAULT 100;
-> DECLARE Y INT;
-> DECLARE Z INT;
-> DECLARE A INT;
-> SET Y = 250;
-> SET Z = 200;
-> SET A = X+Y+Z;
-> SELECT X,Y,Z,A;
-> END //
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> Delimiter ; //
mysql> CALL Proc_Localvariables();
+------+------+------+------+
| X | Y | Z | A |
+------+------+------+------+
| 100 | 250 | 200 | 550 |
+------+------+------+------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)
