Need help starting from question 3!

Oracle assignment on functions
You should write a script to get the emp table/file and the ones related to it that can be found by searching on the web. I actually gave you the emp script to run in a previous week.
There are four tables that Oracle used: emp, dept, bonus and salgrade. They are available in many places on the web. One site is: Set of Oracle tables
1. Do a query using single row functions that flip the name so that it reads first middle (if any) last instead of last first middle. For example:
• Doe John M should be flipped to be John M Doe
o Jones Mary should be flipped to Mary Jones
• Adams-Costa/Susan Ann should be flipped to be Susan Ann Adams-Costa
o Langley/M Richard should be flipped to be M Richard Langley
2. Display a number, the number squared, the number cubed and the square root of the number.
3. Display a decimal number and then display it rounded and truncated. Use a number where rounded and truncated will display different values.
