CREATE TABLE Customers(
    name VARCHAR(255),
    id NUMBER(14),

);

CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER P
AFTER INSERT OR UPDATE OR DELETE ON Customers
FOR EACH ROW
DECLARE
    diff NUMBER(14);
BEGIN
    IF INSERTING THEN
        DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('New salary with value inserted: ' || :NEW.salary);
    ELSIF UPDATING THEN
        if :New.salary > :old.salary then diff := :New.salary - :Old.salary;
	elsif :New.salary < :old.salary then diff := :Old.salary - :New.salary;
	end if;
        DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Salary difference: ' || diff);
    ELSIF DELETING THEN
        DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Salary with value deleted: ' || :OLD.salary);
