MySQL ELT() function returns NULL as output if the index number provided as argument is less than Following is an example to make it clearer −

Example

mysql> Select ELT(0,'Ram','is','a','good','boy')As Result;
+--------+
| Result |
+--------+
| NULL   |
+--------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> Select ELT(-1,'Ram','is','a','good','boy')As Result;
