I need to print temperature along with its symbol.
how it is possible in oracle reports?
for example 45 (degree centigrade in symbol format.)

Find its ASCII code and display it as (for example 25 degrees)
SQL> select '25' || CHR(176) twenty_five_degrees from dual;

TWE
---
25°

SQL>

Take care that this character may not have 176 as code point in your character set.
Check using:
select ascii('°') from dual;

That's why I said "find its ASCII code and ...".

Yes, I understood but I'm not sure OP actually understood and did not directly take our 176.
