MySQL
Functions
Recap
• Math Functions:
Pow()/Power( )
Round( )
Mod( )
Types of Function
• Single Row Functions: Single row functions operate on a single value to return a single value. They can
accept one or more arguments but return only one result per row. When applied on a table, they return
a single result for every row of the queried table. They are further categorized into:
String/Text functions
Math functions
Date and Time functions
• Multiple Row/Aggregate Functions: Multiple row functions operate on a set of rows to return a
single value. Examples include SUM(), AVG() , MAX(), MIN() and COUNT().
Date & Time Functions
• Date and Time functions allow us to perform many types of tasks on Date
type data. The default date format in MySQL is YYYY-MM-DD.
Date and Time Functions are as follows:
NOW (), DATE (), MONTH (), MONTHNAME (), YEAR (), DAY (), DAYNAME ()
Table: Employee
Date and Time Functions…
• NOW( ):
Returns the current date and time in 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS' or
YYYYMMDDHHM [Link] format, depending on whether the function is used in
a string or numeric context.
For example:
mysql> SELECT NOW();
Result: 2020-04-09 [Link]
Date and Time Functions…
• DATE( expr ):
Extracts the date part of a date or datetime expression
For example:
mysql> SELECT DATE('2010-02-26 [Link]’);
Result: '2010-02-26’
Date and Time Functions…
• MONTH( expr ):
Returns the numeric month from the date passed, in the range 0 to 12. It returns 0 for dates
such as '000000-00' or '2010-00-00' that have a zero month part.
For example:
mysql> SELECT MONTH('2010-02-26’);
Result: 2
mysql> select id, date_join, month(date_join) from employee;
Result: ->
Date and Time Functions…
• MONTHNAME( expr ):
Return the name of the month for a date
For example:
mysql> SELECT MONTHNAME('2010-02-26’);
Result: February
mysql> SELECT MONTHNAME('2010-11-12’);
Result: November
Date and Time Functions…
• YEAR( expr ):
Returns the year for date passed in the range 0 to 9999. Returns values like 1998, 2010,1996
and so on.
For example:
mysql> SELECT YEAR('2010-02-26’);
Result: 2010
mysql> SELECT id, date, join, year (date_join) from employee;
Result: ->
Date and Time Functions…
• DAY( expr ):
Returns the day of the month for a specified date. The day returned will be within the range of
1 to 31. If the given date is '0000-00-00', the function will return 0. The DAYOFMONTH() is the
synonym of DAY().
For example:
mysql> SELECT DAY('2010-02-26’);
Result: 26
Date and Time Functions…
• DAYNAME( expr ):
Returns the name of the weekday for the date passed.
For example:
mysql> SELECT DAYNAME(‘2020-04-09’);
Result: Thursday
mysql> Select id, date_join, dayname (date_join) from employee;
Result: ->
