SQL> ---The EXISTS function requires an argument to tell which element of the VARRAY is
referred to. In the above function we are saying in the coded if-statement that if there is no
first element, then return "No members." If a first member of the array is present, then the
array is not null and we can look for whichever member is sought (per the value of sub). If
the value of sub is less than the value of the last subscript, then the return of "'Less than '||
sub||' members'" is effected.
