Thiết lập lược đồ Oracle 11g R2 :

CREATE TABLE t
    (val int, s date, e date)
;

INSERT ALL 
    INTO t (val, s, e)
         VALUES (1, sysdate-3, sysdate-2)
    INTO t (val, s, e)
         VALUES (1, sysdate-2, sysdate-1)
    INTO t (val, s, e)
         VALUES (1, sysdate-1, null)
    INTO t (val, s, e)
         VALUES (2, sysdate-1, sysdate-.5)
    INTO t (val, s, e)
         VALUES (2, sysdate-.5, sysdate-.25)
SELECT * FROM dual
