Main diff between nested table and varray are..
1. Varrays have maximum size but nested table do not have maximum size
2.
Nested tables always dense, but varrays sparse. Elements of nested table can be deleted but varrays cant be deleted.
3.
Varrays stored in database in same table space but nested table data store out of database line in
separate table space.
4. Varrays data in database store as unique consecutive
subscripts but nested table not.
