53. View the Exhibit and examine the data in the PROMOTIONS table.

PROMO_BEGIN_DATE is stored in the default date format, dd-mon-rr.

You need to produce a report that provides   the name, cost,  and start date of all promos in the POST

category that were   launched before January 1,  2000.

Which SQL statement would you use? 

A. SELECT promo_name, promo_cost, promo_begin_date

FROM promotions

WHERE promo_category = 'post' AND promo_begin_date   < '01-01-00';

B. SELECT promo_name, promo_cost, promo_begin_date

FROM promotions

WHERE promo_cost LIKE 'post%' AND promo_begin_date   < '01-01-2000';

C. SELECT promo_name, promo_cost, promo_begin_date

FROM promotions

WHERE promo_category LIKE 'P%' AND promo_begin_date   < '1-JANUARY-00'; 可以，但是like条件不满足

D. SELECT promo_name, promo_cost, promo_begin_date

FROM promotions

WHERE promo_category LIKE '%post%' AND promo_begin_date <   '1-JAN-00';

在表达式中，Oracle Server 可以自动执行以下转换：

从  VARCHAR2 或CHAR隐式转换为 NUMBER

从VARCHAR2 或CHAR 隐式转换为 DATE，但必须符合日期的规定的格式。

Oracle Server  可以在表达式中自动执行数据类型转换。例如，表达式hire_date >  '01-JAN-90' 将导致字符串'01-JAN-90' 隐式转换为一个日期。因此，表达式中的 VARCHAR2 或CHAR 值可以隐式转换为数字或日期数据类型。

A，错误，需要视同to_date显示转换

实验验证：

首先确认默认的时间格式：

sys@TEST0924> select sysdate from dual;

SYSDATE

A，

sh@TEST0924> SELECT promo_name, promo_cost, promo_begin_date FROM promotions WHERE promo_category = 'post' AND promo_begin_date < '01-01-00';

SELECT promo_name, promo_cost, promo_begin_date FROM promotions WHERE promo_category = 'post' AND promo_begin_date < '01-01-00'

                                                                                                                     *

ERROR at line 1:

ORA-01843: not a valid month

显示转换后：

sh@TEST0924> SELECT promo_name, promo_cost, promo_begin_date FROM promotions WHERE promo_category = 'post' AND promo_begin_date <to_date( '01-01-00','dd-mm-yy');
