How to handle date time in Oracle sql quries OCA, OCP track class in sri lanka colombo

EXTRACT (datetime)



Syntax
extract_datetime::=
Description of extract_datetime.gif follows
Description of the illustration extract_datetime.gif

Purpose
EXTRACT extracts and returns the value of a specified datetime field from a datetime or interval value expression. When you extract a TIMEZONE_REGION orTIMEZONE_ABBR (abbreviation), the value returned is a string containing the appropriate time zone name or abbreviation. When you extract any of the other values, the value returned is in the Gregorian calendar. When extracting from a datetime with a time zone value, the value returned is in UTC. For a listing of time zone names and their corresponding abbreviations, query the V$TIMEZONE_NAMES dynamic performance view.
This function can be very useful for manipulating datetime field values in very large tables, as shown in the first example below.
Note:
Timezone region names are needed by the daylight savings feature. The region names are stored in two time zone files. The default time zone file is a small file containing only the most common time zones to maximize performance. If your time zone is not in the default file, then you will not have daylight savings support until you provide a path to the complete (larger) file by way of the ORA_TZFILE environment variable.
Some combinations of datetime field and datetime or interval value expression result in ambiguity. In these cases, Oracle Database returns UNKNOWN (see the examples that follow for additional information).
The field you are extracting must be a field of the datetime_value_expr or interval_value_expr. For example, you can extract only YEARMONTH, and DAY from a DATE value. Likewise, you can extract TIMEZONE_HOUR and TIMEZONE_MINUTE only from the TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE datatype.

Examples
The following example returns from the oe.orders table the number of orders placed in each month:
SELECT EXTRACT(month FROM order_date) "Month",
  COUNT(order_date) "No. of Orders"
  FROM orders
  GROUP BY EXTRACT(month FROM order_date)
  ORDER BY "No. of Orders" DESC;

     Month No. of Orders
---------- -------------
        11            15
         7            14
         6            14
         3            11
         5            10
         9             9
         2             9
         8             7
        10             6
         1             5
        12             4
         4             1
 
12 rows selected.

The following example returns the year 1998.
SELECT EXTRACT(YEAR FROM DATE '1998-03-07') FROM DUAL;

EXTRACT(YEARFROMDATE'1998-03-07')
---------------------------------
                             1998
The following example selects from the sample table hr.employees all employees who were hired after 1998:
SELECT last_name, employee_id, hire_date
   FROM employees
   WHERE EXTRACT(YEAR FROM
   TO_DATE(hire_date, 'DD-MON-RR')) > 1998
   ORDER BY hire_date;


LAST_NAME                 EMPLOYEE_ID HIRE_DATE
------------------------- ----------- ---------
Landry                            127 14-JAN-99
Lorentz                           107 07-FEB-99
Cabrio                            187 07-FEB-99
. . .

The following example results in ambiguity, so Oracle returns UNKNOWN:
SELECT EXTRACT(TIMEZONE_REGION 
      FROM TIMESTAMP '1999-01-01 10:00:00 -08:00')
   FROM DUAL;

EXTRACT(TIMEZONE_REGIONFROMTIMESTAMP'1999-01-0110:00:00-08:00')
----------------------------------------------------------------
UNKNOWN

The ambiguity arises because the time zone numerical offset is provided in the expression, and that numerical offset may map to more than one time zone region.

Date & Time Functions
MySQL date and time functions can be used to change the value of date and time columns.


ADDDATE( )

This MySQL function can be used to add a given interval of time to a date or the value of a date column

ADDTIME( )

Similar to ADDDATE(), but specifically and supposedly for adding time to a value. However, both MySQL functions allow the addition of date and time to a value.

CONVERT_TZ( )

This MySQL function converts a date and time for given time zone to another which is specified.

CURDATE( )

This MySQL function returns the current system date in yyyy-mm-dd format.

CURRENT_DATE( )

This MySQL function is the same as CURDATE().

CURRENT_TIME( )

This MySQL function returns the current time in hh:mm:ss format. This is synonymous with CURTIME( ).

CURRENT_TIMESTAMP( )

This MySQL function returns the current date and time in yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss format.

CURTIME( )

This MySQL function returns the current system time in hh:mm:ss format.

DATE( )

This MySQL function returns the date from a given string, value, or expression that is submitted in a date or datetime format.

DATEDIFF( )

This MySQL function returns the number of days of difference between the two dates given.

DATE_ADD( )

Using the date or datetime given, this MySQL function adds the number of intervals specified. It's fairly synonymous with the ADDDATE( ) function.
