Finding islands are classic problems in PL/SQL. The basic concept is that you have some sort of numbers, like these: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 21, 22, 23, 25, 26. The islands problem involves identifying ranges of existing values. For these numbers, the solution will be as follows:
first_island_element last_island_element
1 3
5 6
8 10
15 15
20 23
25 26

Finding gaps is classic problem in PL/SQL. The basic concept is that you have some sort of numbers (like these: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 21, 22, 23, 25, 26), where there’s supposed to be a fixed interval between the entries, but some entries could be missing. The gaps problem involves identifying the ranges of missing values in the sequence. For these numbers, the solution will be as follows:
START_GAP END_GAP
4 4
7 7
11 14
16 19
24 24
