What does the DATEDIFF function do in Oracle SQL?
In Oracle SQL, there is no direct DATEDIFF function like in some other SQL dialects.
However, you can calculate the difference between two dates by subtracting one from the other. The result will be the number of days between the two dates.
For example, SELECT (end_date – start_date) FROM table_name.
For more complex differences (e.g., months or years), you can use functions like MONTHS_BETWEEN or EXTRACT
You can subtract one date from another to get the difference in days.
Note: The DATEDIFF function is available in other databases like SQL Server and MySQL, but not in Oracle SQL.
