DUAL is a dummy table in oracle ... !
In mysql you have two way to set variables:
1. set them directly via SET @variable={ integer expression | real
expression | string expression }[,@variable= ...].
2. or do something like select @variable:={ integer expression | real
expression | string expression }
you can read it out in the manual:
