date/time value in the database:
DATE – format YYYY-MM-DD
• DATETIME – format: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MI:SS. SMALLDATETIME – format:
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MI:SS.
DATE FUNCTIONS
• NOW()
• CURDATE()
• CURTIME()
• DATE()
• EXTRACT()
• DATE_ADD()
• DATE_SUB()
• DATEDIFF()
• DATE_FORMAT()
NOW()

• Returns the current date and time.


• Example:
• SELECT NOW();
• Output:
• 2017-01-13 08:03:52
CURDATE()

• Returns the current date.


• Example:
• SELECT CURDATE();
• Output:
• 2017-01-13
CURTIME()

• Returns the current time.


• Example:
• SELECT CURTIME();
• Output:
• 08:05:15
DATE()
• Extracts the date part of a date or date/time expression.
• Example:
• For the below table named ‘Test’
• Id Name BirthTime
• 4120 Pratik 1996-09-26 16:44:15.581
• SELECT Name, DATE(BirthTime) AS BirthDate FROM Test;
• Output:
• Name BirthDate
• Pratik 1996-09-26
EXTRACT()
• Returns a single part of a date/time.
• Syntax:
• EXTRACT(unit FROM date);
• There are several units that can be considered but only some are used such
as:
• MICROSECOND, SECOND, MINUTE, HOUR, DAY, WEEK, MONTH, QUARTER,
YEAR, etc.
• And ‘date’ is a valid date expression.
• Example:
• For the below table named ‘Test’
• Id Name BirthTime
• 4120 Pratik 1996-09-26 16:44:15.581
SELECT Name, Extract(DAY FROM BirthTime) AS BirthDay FROM Test;
Output:
Name BirthDay
Pratik 26
SELECT Name, Extract(YEAR FROM BirthTime) AS BirthYear FROM Test;
Output:
Name BirthYear
Pratik 1996
SELECT Name, Extract(SECOND FROM BirthTime) AS BirthSecond FROM Test;
Output:
Name BirthSecond
• Pratik 581
DATE_ADD()

Adds a specified time interval to a date


Syntax:
DATE_ADD(date, INTERVAL expr type);
Where, date – valid date expression and expr is the number of interval we
want to add.
And type can be one of the following:

YEAR, etc.
Example:
For the below table named ‘Test’
Id Name BirthTime
4120 Pratik 1996-09-26 16:44:15.581
Queries
SELECT Name, DATE_ADD(BirthTime, INTERVAL 1 YEAR) AS BirthTimeModified
FROM Test;
Output:
Name BirthTimeModified
• Pratik 1997-09-26 16:44:15.581
SELECT Name, DATE_ADD(BirthTime, INTERVAL 30 DAY) AS BirthDayModified
FROM Test;
Output:
Name BirthDayModified
Pratik 1996-10-26 16:44:15.581
SELECT Name, DATE_ADD(BirthTime, INTERVAL 4 HOUR) AS
BirthHourModified FROM Test;
Output:
Name BirthSecond
• Pratik 1996-10-26 20:44:15.581
DATE_SUB()

as DATE_ADD just the difference is that DATE_SUB is used to subtract a given

DATEDIFF()

• Syntax:
• DATEDIFF(date1, date2);
• date1 & date2- date/time expression
