1. 日期和字符转换函数用法（to_date,to_char）
????????
select to_char(sysdate,'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss') as nowTime from dual;?? //日期转化为字符串??
select to_char(sysdate,'yyyy') as nowYear?? from dual;?? //获取时间的年??
select to_char(sysdate,'mm')??? as nowMonth from dual;?? //获取时间的月??
select to_char(sysdate,'dd')??? as nowDay??? from dual;?? //获取时间的日??
select to_char(sysdate,'hh24') as nowHour?? from dual;?? //获取时间的时??
select to_char(sysdate,'mi')??? as nowMinute from dual;?? //获取时间的分??
select to_char(sysdate,'ss')??? as nowSecond from dual;?? //获取时间的秒

???
select to_date('2004-05-07 13:23:44','yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss')??? from dual//

2.?????
??? select to_char( to_date(222,'J'),'Jsp') from dual?????
???
??? 显示Two Hundred Twenty-Two????

3.求某天是星期几?????
?? select to_char(to_date('2002-08-26','yyyy-mm-dd'),'day') from dual;?????
?? 星期一?????
?? select to_char(to_date('2002-08-26','yyyy-mm-dd'),'day','NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE = American') from dual;?????
?? monday?????
?? 设置日期语言?????
?? ALTER SESSION SET NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE='AMERICAN';?????
?? 也可以这样?????
?? TO_DATE ('2002-08-26', 'YYYY-mm-dd', 'NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE = American')????

4. 两个日期间的天数?????
??? select floor(sysdate - to_date('20020405','yyyymmdd')) from dual;????

5. 时间为null的用法?????
?? select id, active_date from table1?????
?? UNION?????
?? select 1, TO_DATE(null) from dual;?????
??
?? 注意要用TO_DATE(null)????

6.月份差??
?? a_date between to_date('20011201','yyyymmdd') and to_date('20011231','yyyymmdd')?????
?? 那么12月31号中午12点之后和12月1号的12点之前是不包含在这个范围之内的。?????
?? 所以，当时间需要精确的时候，觉得to_char还是必要的
?????
7. 日期格式冲突问题?????
??? 输入的格式要看你安装的ORACLE字符集的类型, 比如: US7ASCII, date格式的类型就是: '01-Jan-01'?????
??? alter system set NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE = American?????
??? alter session set NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE = American?????
??? 或者在to_date中写?????
??? select to_char(to_date('2002-08-26','yyyy-mm-dd'),'day','NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE = American') from dual;?????
??? 注意我这只是举了NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE，当然还有很多，?????
??? 可查
