1. Standalone procedure is a procedure which can be executed independently means neither it will take any parameters from any other schema or else from any other databases nor it will pass any data to any other schema or databases.It can be executed within the schema of its own using parameters.

2.There is no specific constraints for PL/SQL.Whatever constraints are already defined by oracle are sufficient i.e. Primary Key,Candidate Key,Unique Key,Foreign Key and Check Constraint.

3. Named notion is , if you pass the actual parameters for formal parameters of a procedue or function or package in any order by using there name only.
Means suppose you create a procedure say x using char,number as passing parameter like.

Craete or replace procedure X(a in char,b in number);

If you want to execute it on SQL prompt, you haveto write like this:

SQL> Exec x(a=>'A',b=>2); or else
SQl> Exec x(b=>2,b=>'A');
