How to use MySQL time conversion function 1th/2 page _mysql

Usage of MySQL time conversion function

DayOfWeek (date)
Returns the week index of date (1= Sunday, 2 = Monday, ...). 7= Saturday). These index values correspond to ODBC standards.
Mysql> Select DayOfWeek (2007-10-31);
-> 4

Weekday (date)
Returns the week index of date (0= Monday, 1 = Tuesday, ...). 6= Sunday).
Mysql> Select Weekday (' 2007-10-31 13:05:00 ');
-> 2
Mysql> Select Weekday (' 2007-10-31 ');
-> 2

DayOfMonth (date)
Returns the date in the month of date, in the range 1 through 31.
Mysql> Select DayOfMonth (' 2007-10-31 ');
-> 31

DayOfYear (date)
Returns the number of days in a year, in the range of 1 to 366.
Mysql> Select DayOfYear (' 2007-10-31 ');
-> 304


MONTH (date)
Returns the month of date, ranging from 1 to 12.
Mysql> Select MONTH (' 2007-10-31 ');
-> 10

Dayname (date)
Returns the name of the week of date.
Mysql> Select Dayname ("2007-10-31");
-> ' Wednesday '

MonthName (date)
Returns the month name of the date.
Mysql> Select MonthName ("2007-10-31");
-> ' October '

Quarter (date)
Returns the quarter of date one year, ranging from 1 to 4.
Mysql> Select quarter (' 2007-10-31 ');
-> 4

WEEK (date)

WEEK (Date,first)
For Sunday is the first day of the week, there is a single parameter that returns the week number of date, ranging from 0 to 52. 2 Parameter Form week () allows you to specify whether the week starts in Sunday or Monday. If the second argument is 0, the week begins in Sunday, if the second parameter is 1, starting from Monday.
Mysql> Select WEEK (' 1998-02-20 ');
-> 7
Mysql> Select WEEK (' 1998-02-20 ', 0);
-> 7
Mysql> Select WEEK (' 1998-02-20 ', 1);
-> 8

Year (date)
Returns the year of date, ranging from 1000 to 9999.
Mysql> Select year (' 98-02-03 ');
-> 1998

HOUR (Time)
Returns the hour of time, ranging from 0 to 23.
Mysql> Select HOUR (' 10:05:03 ');
-> 10

MINUTE (Time)
Returns the minutes of time, ranging from 0 to 59.
Mysql> Select MINUTE (' 98-02-03 10:05:03 ');
-> 5

SECOND (Time)
The number of seconds to return time, ranging from 0 to 59.
Mysql> Select SECOND (' 10:05:03 ');
-> 3

Period_add (P,n)
Increase n months to phase p (in format Yymm or yyyymm). Returns a value in YYYYMM format. Note that the phase parameter p is not a date value.
Mysql> Select Period_add (9801,2);
-> 199803

Period_diff (P1,P2)
Returns the number of months between periods P1 and P2, P1 and P2 should be in a format yymm or yyyymm. Note that the time parameter P1 and P2 are not date values.
Mysql> Select Period_diff (9802,199703);
-> 11

Date_add (Date,interval expr type)

Date_sub (Date,interval expr type)

Adddate (Date,interval expr type)

Subdate (Date,interval expr type)
These functions perform date operations. For MySQL 3.22, they are new. Adddate () and subdate () are synonyms for Date_add () and Date_sub ().
In MySQL 3.23, you can use + and-instead of Date_add () and Date_sub (). (see example) date is a specified start date
datetime or Date value, expr is an expression that specifies an interval value that is added to the start date or subtracted from the start date, and expr is a string;
A "-" start represents a negative interval. Type is a keyword that indicates how an expression should be interpreted. EXTRACT (type from date) function from date
Returns the "type" interval in the The following table shows how type and expr parameters are associated: the desired expr format for type value meaning
SECOND seconds SECONDS
MINUTE minutes MINUTES
HOUR Time HOURS
Day days
MONTH Month MONTHS
Year YEARS
Minute_second minute and second "Minutes:seconds"
Hour_minute hour and Minute "hours:minutes"
Day_hour Day and Hour "days HOURS"
Year_month year and month "Years-months"
Hour_second hours, minutes, "HOURS:MINUTES:SECONDS"
Day_minute day, hour, minute "Days Hours:minutes"
Day_second day, hour, minute, second "days HOURS:MINUTES:SECONDS"

MySQL allows any punctuation separator in the expr format. Indicates that the suggested separator is displayed. If the date parameter is a date value and your calculation contains only the year, month, and day portions (that is, there is no time part), the result is a date value. Otherwise, the result is a datetime value.

mysql> Select "1997-12-31 23:59:59" + INTERVAL 1 SECOND;
-> 1998-01-01 00:00:00
mysql> SELECT INTERVAL 1 day + "1997-12-31";
-> 1998-01-01
mysql> Select "1998-01-01"-INTERVAL 1 SECOND;
-> 1997-12-31 23:59:59
mysql> SELECT date_add ("1997-12-31 23:59:59",
INTERVAL 1 SECOND);
-> 1998-01-01 00:00:00
mysql> SELECT date_add ("1997-12-31 23:59:59",
INTERVAL 1 day);
-> 1998-01-01 23:59:59
mysql> SELECT date_add ("1997-12-31 23:59:59",
INTERVAL "1:1" minute_second);
-> 1998-01-01 00:01:00
mysql> SELECT date_sub ("1998-01-01 00:00:00",
INTERVAL "1 1:1:1" day_second);
-> 1997-12-30 22:58:59
mysql> SELECT date_add ("1998-01-01 00:00:00",
INTERVAL "-1" day_hour);
-> 1997-12-30 14:00:00
mysql> SELECT date_sub ("1998-01-02", INTERVAL);
-> 1997-12-02
Mysql> SELECT EXTRACT (year from "1999-07-02");
-> 1999
Mysql> SELECT EXTRACT (year_month from "1999-07-02 01:02:03");
-> 199907
Mysql> SELECT EXTRACT (day_minute from "1999-07-02 01:02:03");
-> 20102

If you specify an interval value that is too short (excluding the desired interval for the type keyword), MySQL assumes that you have omitted the leftmost portion of the interval value. For example, if you specify that a type is Day_second, the value expr is expected to have the day, hour, minute, and second portions. If you specify a value like "1:10", MySQL assumes that the days and hours are partly missing and that the value represents minutes and seconds. In other words, the "1:10" Day_second is interpreted as equivalent to the "1:10" Minute_second, which is two justified by the way that MySQL interprets the time value as a passing period rather than as a day's time. If you use a date that is not exactly correct, the result is null. If you add month, year_month or year and the result date is greater than the maximum number of days for the new month, the day is adjusted with the largest day in the crescent moon.
