  2. SQL syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_syntax

    SQL provides the functions CEILING and FLOOR to round numerical values. (Popular vendor specific functions are TRUNC (Informix, DB2, PostgreSQL, Oracle and MySQL) and ROUND (Informix, SQLite, Sybase, Oracle, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server and Mimer SQL.)) Temporal (datetime) DATE: for date values (e.g. 2011-05-03). TIME: for time values (e.g ...

  3. Truncate (SQL) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncate_(SQL)

    In SQL, the TRUNCATE TABLE statement is a data manipulation language (DML) [1] operation that deletes all rows of a table without causing a triggered action. The result of this operation quickly removes all data from a table , typically bypassing a number of integrity enforcing mechanisms.

  4. PL/SQL - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PL/SQL

    The purpose of a PL/SQL function is generally used to compute and return a single value. This returned value may be a single scalar value (such as a number, date or character string) or a single collection (such as a nested table or array). User-defined functions supplement the built-in functions provided by Oracle Corporation. [6]

  5. Truncation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncation

    Truncation of positive real numbers can be done using the floor function. Given a number x ∈ R + {\displaystyle x\in \mathbb {R} _{+}} to be truncated and n ∈ N 0 {\displaystyle n\in \mathbb {N} _{0}} , the number of elements to be kept behind the decimal point, the truncated value of x is

  6. Data definition language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_definition_language

    Saving a ddl file in Oracle SQL Developer. In the context of SQL, data definition or data description language (DDL) is a syntax for creating and modifying database objects such as tables, indices, and users. DDL statements are similar to a computer programming language for defining data structures, especially database schemas.

  7. Data control language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_Control_Language

    SQL statements are used to perform tasks such as insert data to a database, delete or update data in a database, or retrieve data from a database. Though database systems use SQL, they also have their own additional proprietary extensions that are usually only used on their system.

  8. Truncation error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncation_error

    In reality, we can only use a finite number of these terms as it would take an infinite amount of computational time to make use of all of them. So let's suppose we use only three terms of the series, then e x ≈ 1 + x + x 2 2 ! {\displaystyle e^{x}\approx 1+x+{\frac {x^{2}}{2!}}}

  9. Floor and ceiling functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floor_and_ceiling_functions

    In mathematics, the floor function is the function that takes as input a real number x, and gives as output the greatest integer less than or equal to x, denoted ⌊x⌋ or floor(x). Similarly, the ceiling function maps x to the least integer greater than or equal to x, denoted ⌈x⌉ or ceil(x). [1]
