我们如何忽略 MySQL DATEDIFF() 函数返回的负值?
众所周知 DATEDIFF() 函数用于获取两个日期的相差天数。因此,很有可能它也会返回负值。
mysql> select * from differ; +------------+-------------+ | OrderDate | WorkingDate | +------------+-------------+ | 2017-10-22 | 2017-10-29 | | 2017-10-25 | 2017-10-30 | | 2017-10-25 | 2017-11-30 | +------------+-------------+ 3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
上面的查询将返回表“differ”中的值。现在,如果有人想要了解 OrderDate 和 WorkingDate 之间的区别,那么输出将如下所示为负数:
mysql> Select DATEDIFF(OrderDate, WorkingDate)AS 'DIFFERENCE IN DAYS' from differ; +--------------------+ | DIFFERENCE IN DAYS | +--------------------+ | -7 | | -5 | | -36 | +--------------------+ 3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
但是,我们可以使用 MySQL ABS() 函数来忽略这些负值,并且可以按照以下方法进行:
mysql> Select ABS(DATEDIFF(OrderDate, WorkingDate))AS 'DIFFERENCE IN DAYS' from differ; +--------------------+ | DIFFERENCE IN DAYS | +--------------------+ | 7 | | 5 | | 36 | +--------------------+ 3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
