convert date_time to specific decimal place - sql

How do I convert the seconds in this date part so that it display it the all seconds as 0.047 rather than 0.047777777777777 or 0.333 instead of 0.33333333322?
Code below:
((DATE_PART('day', completed_at::timestamp - created_at::timestamp) * 24 +
DATE_PART('hour', completed_at::timestamp -created_at::timestamp)) * 60 +
DATE_PART('minute', completed_at::timestamp - created_at::timestamp)) * 60 +
DATE_PART('second', completed_at::timestamp -created_at::timestamp) As Duration

You can use the ROUND function http://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_func_round.asp
You use it like that :
ROUND(column_name,decimals)
In your example (if you want 3 decimals after the comma):
SELECT ROUND(...,3) AS Duration FROM yourTable
(replace ... with the part of your query that outputs 0.047777777777777

The solution is to use timestamp(0) which defines the precision instead of timestamp - or in your case timestamp(3)
"time, timestamp, and interval accept an optional precision value p which specifies the number of fractional digits retained in the seconds field. By default, there is no explicit bound on precision. The allowed range of p is from 0 to 6 for the timestamp and interval types.

How do I remove the decimals from this interval?

This is my code
SELECT
AVG(ride_length) AS average_ride_length,
MAX(ride_length) AS max_ride_length
FROM
trips_2015_q1
This is what I get:
to MINUTE level:
SELECT
AVG(ride_length)::interval MINUTE AS average_ride_length,
MAX(ride_length) AS max_ride_length
FROM
trips_2015_q1;
to SECOND level:
SELECT
AVG(ride_length)::interval second AS average_ride_length,
MAX(ride_length) AS max_ride_length
FROM
trips_2015_q1;
Alternate solution:
select (current_timestamp - '07/01/2022 08:55'::timestamp);
?column?
-----------------
00:28:20.589474
(1 row)
test(5432)=# select (current_timestamp - '07/01/2022 08:55'::timestamp)::interval(0);
interval
----------
00:28:22
This uses the precision value to interval() to eliminate the fractional seconds per Date/Time types:
time, timestamp, and interval accept an optional precision value p which specifies the number of fractional digits retained in the seconds field. By default, there is no explicit bound on precision. The allowed range of p is from 0 to 6.

Interval Date to days [duplicate]

I have two timestamp columns: arrTime and depTime.
I need to find the number of munites the bus is late.
I tried the following:
SELECT RouteDate, round((arrTime-depTime)*1440,2) time_difference
FROM ...
I get the following error: inconsistent datatype . expected number but got interval day to second
How can i parse the nuber of minutes?
If i simply subtract: SELECT RouteDate, arrTime-depTime)*1440 time_difference
The result is correct but not well formatted:
time_difference
+00000000 00:01:00 0000000
The result of timestamp arithmetic is an INTERVAL datatype. You have an INTERVAL DAY TO SECOND there...
If you want the number of minutes one way would be to use EXTRACT(), for instance:
select extract( minute from interval_difference )
+ extract( hour from interval_difference ) * 60
+ extract( day from interval_difference ) * 60 * 24
from ( select systimestamp - (systimestamp - 1) as interval_difference
from dual )
Alternatively you can use a trick with dates:
select sysdate + (interval_difference * 1440) - sysdate
from (select systimestamp - (systimestamp - 1) as interval_difference
from dual )
The "trick" version works because of the operator order of precedence and the differences between date and timestamp arithmetic.
Initially the operation looks like this:
date + ( interval * number ) - date
As mentioned in the documentation:
Oracle evaluates expressions inside parentheses before evaluating those outside.
So, the first operation performed it to multiply the interval by 1,440. An interval, i.e. a discrete period of time, multiplied by a number is another discrete period of time, see the documentation on datetime and interval arithmetic. So, the result of this operation is an interval, leaving us with:
date + interval - date
The plus operator takes precedence over the minus here. The reason for this could be that an interval minus a date is an invalid operation, but the documentation also implies that this is the case (doesn't come out and say it). So, the first operation performed is date + interval. A date plus an interval is a date. Leaving just
date - date
As per the documentation, this results in an integer representing the number of days. However, you multiplied the original interval by 1,440, so this now represented 1,440 times the amount of days it otherwise would have. You're then left with the number of seconds.
It's worth noting that:
When interval calculations return a datetime value, the result must be an actual datetime value or the database returns an error. For example, the next two statements return errors:
The "trick" method will fail, rarely but it will still fail. As ever it's best to do it properly.
SELECT (arrTime - depTime) * 1440 time_difference
FROM Schedule
WHERE ...
That will get you the time difference in minutes. Of course, you can do any rounding that you might need to to get whole minutes....
Casting to DATE first returns the difference as a number, at least with the version of Oracle I tried.
round((cast(arrTime as date) - cast(depTime as date))*1440)
You could use TO_CHAR then convert back to a number. I have never tested the performance compared to EXTRACT, but the statement works with two dates instead of an interval which fit my needs.
Seconds:
(to_char(arrTime,'J')-to_char(depTime,'J'))*86400+(to_char(arrTime,'SSSSS')-to_char(depTime,'SSSSS'))
Minutes:
round((to_char(arrTime,'J')-to_char(depTime,'J'))*1440+(to_char(arrTime,'SSSSS')-to_char(depTime,'SSSSS'))/60)
J is julian day and SSSSS is seconds in day. Together they give an absolute time in seconds.

Subtracting Day from Postgresql EPOCH Column

I have the following code where I am trying to simply subtract 5 days from the date. The date is stored as in EPOCH time (miliseconds, 13 numbers)in the t.Date_created field. but for some reason the code does not work with the following error. Any advice would be helpful!!!
[42883] ERROR: operator does not exist: timestamp with time zone -
integer Hint: No operator matches the given name and argument types.
You might need to add explicit type casts.
Code below:
SELECT to_timestamp(t.date_Created / 1000) - 5 FROM task_mgmt.teams t LIMIT 5;
You need to subtract an interval
to_timestamp(t.date_Created / 1000) - interval '5 days'
Integers can only be subtracted directly from a date value, not from a timestamp value.
I would suggest arithmetic:
t.date_created - 5 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000

ORACLE-SQL : how to calculate 2 time in number type?

I kept my Time data as number type (NUMBER(4,2)) and I want to calculate the column like below
2.15 (2:15 am.) - 1.45 (1:45 am)
***result***
0.30 (a half hour)
Please kindly explain me the method to calculate.
Try this one I hove it will work for u
select to_char(to_date(((to_date(to_char(09.15),'hh24.mi')-to_date(to_char(01.45),'hh24.mi'))*24*60*60),'sssss'),'hh24:mi') time from dual;
Try this code:
select (trunc(2.15)* 0.6 + (2.15 - trunc(2.15))) - (trunc(1.45)* 0.6 + (1.45 - trunc(1.45)))
as result
from YOUR_TABLE
Result: 0,30
Assuming you can get them into separate columns:
with mins_calc as
(
select (floor(mytime1) - floor(mytime2))*60 + (mod(mytime1,1)-mod(mytime2,1)) as tot_mins
from Mytable
)
select to_char(floor(tot_mins/60))||'.'||to_char(mod(tot_mins,60)) as time_diff_char
from mins_calc
Convert to hours:
select ( trunc(t1) + (t1 - trunc(t1)) * 60) -
trunc(t2) + (t2 - trunc(t2)) * 60)
) as hours
This converts the difference to fractional hours. I would advise you to leave it like that or convert to minutes.
You can convert your two 'times' to minutes; this uses bind variables to provide both numeric values as it isn't clear where you're actually getting them from:
var time_1 number;
var time_2 number;
exec :time_1 := 2.15;
exec :time_2 := 1.45;
select 60 * trunc(:time_1) + 100 * (:time_1 - trunc(:time_1)) as minutes_1,
60 * trunc(:time_2) + 100 * (:time_2 - trunc(:time_2)) as minutes_2,
(60 * trunc(:time_1) + 100 * (:time_1 - trunc(:time_1)))
- (60 * trunc(:time_2) + 100 * (:time_2 - trunc(:time_2))) as minutes_diff
from dual;
MINUTES_1 MINUTES_2 MINUTES_DIFF
---------- ---------- ------------
135 105 30
You can then convert the difference in minutes back to a number in the (odd) format you're using by reversing the calculation; this uses a second CTE to get the difference in minutes calculated above to simplify things and avoid repeating the long terms:
with diff (minutes) as (
select (60 * trunc(:time_1) + 100 * (:time_1 - trunc(:time_1)))
- (60 * trunc(:time_2) + 100 * (:time_2 - trunc(:time_2)))
from dual
)
select minutes,
trunc(minutes/60) + mod(minutes, 60) / 100 as minutes_as_number
from diff;
MINUTES MINUTES_AS_NUMBER
---------- -----------------

DATEDIFF (Transact-SQL)
This function returns the count (as a signed integer value) of the specified datepart boundaries crossed between the specified startdate and enddate.
//You can return: second, minute, day, year. In your case is minute.
SELECT DATEDIFF(minute, '2018-08-03 02:15:00am', '2018-08-03 1:45:00am');
return value: -30
if you would like to get exact (30) converted in varchar use like that.
SELECT CONVERT(varchar, ABS(DATEDIFF(minute, '2018-08-03 02:15:00am', '2018-08-03 1:45:00am')));
First use ABS() to get the absolute number (removing the (-) minus signal) and convert to varchar using CONVERT().

ORA-01873: the leading precision of the interval is too smalll

I am getting an ORA-01873 "leading precision of the interval is too small" error from this statement and can't figure out why:
The v_not_auto_bl_num is declared as VARCHAR2(1000).
What is causing the error?
In the code you originally posted you are doing:
ABS( EXTRACT(DAY FROM (TO_TIMESTAMP(DHS.ASSIGNMENT_IODT,'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS.FF')
- TO_TIMESTAMP(DHS.COMPLETED_IODT,'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS.FF')) *86400*1000) / 1000)
The relevant part is this:
(TO_TIMESTAMP(DHS.ASSIGNMENT_IODT,'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS.FF')
- TO_TIMESTAMP(DHS.COMPLETED_IODT,'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS.FF')) *86400*1000
If you subtract two timestamps you get an interval data type, not a number; e.g. if your table columns were, say, '20170419065416' and '20170419000000' then subtracting them would generate:
(TO_TIMESTAMP(DHS.A
-------------------
+00 06:54:16.000000
If you multiply that by 86400*1000 you exceed the precision of the interval data type. I chose that value because one second less is OK:
with dhs (assignment_iodt, completed_iodt) as (
select '20170419065415', '20170419000000' from dual
)
select (TO_TIMESTAMP(DHS.ASSIGNMENT_IODT,'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS.FF')
- TO_TIMESTAMP(DHS.COMPLETED_IODT,'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS.FF')) as original,
(TO_TIMESTAMP(DHS.ASSIGNMENT_IODT,'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS.FF')
- TO_TIMESTAMP(DHS.COMPLETED_IODT,'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS.FF')) *86400*1000 as multiplied
from dhs;
ORIGINAL MULTIPLIED
------------------- -------------------------
+00 06:54:15.000000 +24855000 00:00:00.000000
Once second more (or, in fact, anything beyond 20170419065415.134814814, or any pair of values with the actual interval above 06:54:15.134814814) will error as the multiplied interval is out of range for the data type.
What's actually happening under the hood is unclear; using a smaller multiplier also causes the issues once you cross that raw interval size limit.
Anyway, you seem to be trying to get the number of while seconds, which you can do by extracting each time element and multiplying them individually:
select abs(
(extract(day from diff) * 86400)
+ (extract (hour from diff) * 3600)
+ (extract (minute from diff) * 60)
+ trunc(extract (second from diff))
) as c_f_previous_time
from (
select to_timestamp(dhs.assignment_iodt,'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS.FF')
- to_timestamp(dhs.completed_iodt,'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS.FF') as diff
from dhs
);
I've put the timestamp subtraction in an inline view just so it doesn't have to be repeated within each extract call. You can put the rest of your original query inside that inline view (or a CTE) too.
Incidentally, the abs() implies you can have rows in your table where the completed date is earlier than the assignment; or just that you didn't notice you're doing the subtraction the wrong way round. If you data cannot have completed before assigned then you can swap the terms over and lose the abs(); I'd probably swap the terms anyway just to make it look more logical.
first try this:
create table test_table as
SELECT ACT_BL.BL_NUM,
ABS( EXTRACT(DAY FROM (TO_TIMESTAMP(DHS.ASSIGNMENT_IODT,'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS.FF') - TO_TIMESTAMP(DHS.COMPLETED_IODT,'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS.FF')) *86400*1000) / 1000) AS C_F_PREVIOUS_TIME
FROM DOCI_ACTIVITY ACT ,
DOCI_ACTIVITY_RELATED_BL ACT_BL ,
DSH_ACTIVITY DHS
WHERE ACTIVITY_TYPE IN ('BlCodingAndFormatting','BlCreationFromESI')
AND ACT.ACTIVITY_ID =ACT_BL.ACTIVITY_ID
AND ACT_BL.ACTIVITY_ID = DHS.ACTIVITY_ID
AND ACT_BL.BL_NUM = v_not_auto_bl_num;
then check the test_table columns type(BL_NUM and C_F_PREVIOUS_TIME)
after that you apply that column types to your table
In your case, the exception is raised when you multiply an interval by 86400.
As I've posted here you could use the following shorter method to convert interval to milliseconds.
SELECT ROUND((EXTRACT(DAY FROM (
TO_TIMESTAMP(DHS.ASSIGNMENT_IODT,'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS.FF') - TO_TIMESTAMP(DHS.COMPLETED_IODT ,'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS.FF')
) * 24 * 60) * 60 + EXTRACT(SECOND FROM (
TO_TIMESTAMP(DHS.ASSIGNMENT_IODT,'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS.FF') - TO_TIMESTAMP(DHS.COMPLETED_IODT ,'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS.FF')
))) * 1000) AS MILLIS FROM DUAL;
Your numeric number appears to be too large for the ABS function to handle. The biggest value you can pass to ABS() as the number is 2^31-1:
