Selecting from the DUAL Table
DUAL is a table automatically created by Oracle along with the data dictionary.
DUAL is in the schema of the user SYS, but is accessible by the name DUAL to all users.
It has one column, DUMMY, defined to be VARCHAR2(1), and contains one row with a value 'X'.
Selecting from the DUAL table is useful for computing a constant expression
with the SELECT statement.
Because DUAL has only one row, the constant is returned only once.
Alternatively, you can select a constant, pseudocolumn, or expression from any table,
but the value will be returned as many times as there are rows in the table

Originally, this table was introduced by Oracle for its internal processing, for example, RMAN
uses this table to fetch the current date for a backup. Contention on this table can occur, if
application uses this table frequently and concurrently, with common waits like Buffer Busy Wait,
Latch Free (Cache Buffer Chain / Cache Buffer LRU chain). The behaviour of this table is changed in
Oracle database version 10g and hence, this note is only applicable for database versions 9i and below.
