If you haven't created the database yet, look at the 'create database'
command. The controlfiles get created when you create the database.
If you already created a database, what happened to your controlfiles?
Anyway, if you lost them, you can always use the 'create controlfile'
command to get them back.
Also, you might want to have a look at the Oracle Concepts Manual. It explains all about creating a database and controlfiles.
