For this, use INTERVAL in MySQL. Let us first create a table −
mysql> create table DemoTable1376 -> ( -> AdmissionDate date -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.68 sec)
Insert some records in the table using insert command −
mysql> insert into DemoTable1376 values('2018-01-21'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.12 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable1376 values('2017-12-01'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.17 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable1376 values('2018-11-02'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.13 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable1376 values('2019-03-14'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.17 sec)
Display all records from the table using select statement−
mysql> select * from DemoTable1376;
This will produce the following output −
+---------------+ | AdmissionDate | +---------------+ | 2018-01-21 | | 2017-12-01 | | 2018-11-02 | | 2019-03-14 | +---------------+ 4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Following is the query to add a year and two days to a date in MySQL −
mysql> select date_add(date_add(AdmissionDate,interval 1 year),interval 2 day) AS AfterAddingOneYearTwoDays from DemoTable1376;
This will produce the following output −
+---------------------------+ | AfterAddingOneYearTwoDays | +---------------------------+ | 2019-01-23 | | 2018-12-03 | | 2019-11-04 | | 2020-03-16 | +---------------------------+ 4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
