It's functionally correct.  Every table you create automatically has a type
of the same name and structure.

Description:

On page 1151  43.3.4. Composite Types
of  the pdf documentation for 9.5.3
I suspect a mistake:

it should be :

CREATE TYPE  employee AS (
name text,
salary integer,
age integer );

and not

CREATE TABLE  employee (
name text,
salary integer,
age integer );



It's functionally correct.  Every table you create automatically has a =
type of the same name and structure.
