    The key takeaways are that PL/SQL records can store a whole database record in a single variable, and INDEX BY tables allow storing collections of records with a primary key index. Different types of PL/SQL records discussed include %ROWTYPE, user-defined records, and records as components of other records.

    The different types of PL/SQL records discussed include %ROWTYPE records, user-defined records through defining a record type, and records being used as components of other records.

    Some ways to declare an INDEX BY table discussed include declaring a table type of %ROWTYPE and indexing it by a numeric type like BINARY_INTEGER.
