i created a database schema in 11g express edition, however there are some APEX tables and some dummy data…
Is it safe to delete them? also i would like to know what does apex means and why they have a dollar sign, thanks…
APEX$_ACL TABLE
APEX$_WS_FILES TABLE
APEX$_WS_HISTORY TABLE
APEX$_WS_LINKS TABLE
APEX$_WS_NOTES TABLE
APEX$_WS_ROWS TABLE
APEX$_WS_TAGS TABLE
APEX$_WS_WEBPG_SECTIONS TABLE
APEX$_WS_WEBPG_SECTION_HISTORY TABLE
I used SYS to create a new user, the new user was created along with a workspace and a database schema, please see the images above.

I wouldn't suggest removing those tables, no. The Oracle XE browser-based interface is written in APEX (Application Express, a framework for developing web-based apps in the Oracle database). If you break APEX, that interface will likely stop working.
