Hello list and a happy new year to everyone, why does :

insert into test values (mysequence.nextval, mysequence.currval ) ;

have the same effect as

insert into test values (mysequence.currval, mysequence.nextval ) ;



where
1.  mysequence is
create  sequence mysequence increment by 1 start with 1 maxvalue 1000
nocycle nocache ;

and

2.  test is
Name              Null?    Type
