Write a script that creates and calls a stored procedure named spInsertInstructor that inserts a row into the Instructors table. This stored procedure should accept one parameter for each of these columns: LastName, FirstName, Status, DepartmentChairman, AnnualSalary, and DepartmentID.
This stored procedure should set the DateAdded column to the current date.
If the value for the AnnualSalary column is a negative number, the stored procedure should raise an error that indicates that this column doesn’t accept negative numbers.
Code at least two EXEC statements that test this procedure.
