Read the following lines,"After the statement has been retrieved, if bind variables were present in the statement, the literal values are substituted",

I've some doubt in it,clear it.

what does 'literal value' mean?

Why it's substituted?

A literal can be a number, character, or a string. For example, in the expression,

:1 = 'Hello World'

:1 is a bind variable, and 'Hello World' is a literal.
