    Microsoft SQL Server provides many built-in functions that can manipulate and analyze data in various ways, including date/time functions to work with dates and times, aggregate functions to perform calculations on sets of rows, string functions to modify and work with text, mathematical functions for calculations on numbers, and ranking functions to assign ranks to rows. Some examples of commonly used functions are GETDATE() to return the current date/time, COUNT() to count rows, CONCAT() to concatenate strings, ABS() to return the absolute value of a number, and RANK() to assign unique ranks to rows.

    of built-in functions that can be used to
    manipulate and analyze data in various
    ways.

    Let's learn some of the commonly used


    types of built-in functions.
    Date Time functions

    SQL Date Time functions are used to


    manipulate and format date and time
    values.
    EXAMPLES

    Returns the current system date


    GETDATE) and time in the format YYYY-MM
    DD HH:MI:SS.

    Returns a specific part of a date,


    DATEPART)
    such as the year, month, or day.

    Returns the difference between


    DATEDIFF0 two dates in a specified unit, such
    as days or hours

    Adds or subtracts a specified time


    DATEADD) interval (such as days, hours, or
    minutes) to a date.
    Aggregate functions
    SQL Aggregate functions are used to
    perform calculations on a set of rows and
    return a single value as the result.
    EXAMPLES

    Returns the number of rows that


    cOUNT)
    match a specified condition.

    Returns the sum of a numneric


    SUM) column.

    Returns the average value of a


    AVG) numeric column.

    Returns the smallest value in a


    MINO column.

    Returns the maximum value in a


    MAX) column.
    String Functions
    SQL String functions help you modify
    and work with text data in your database,
    like combining words, finding specific
    words, trimming,and formatting.
    EXAMPLES

    Used to concatenate two or more


    cONCATO
    strings into a single string.

    Used to convert a specified string


    UPPER)
    to all uppercase letters.

    Used to convert a specified string


    LOWERO to all lowercase letters.

    Used to replace all occurrences of


    REPLACE) a substring in a specified string
    with a new substring.
    Mathematical Functions
    SQL Mathematical functions are used to
    perform calculations and operations on
    numerical data within a SQL query.
    EXAMPLES

    Returns the absolute (positive)


    ABS) value of a number, regardless of
    its sign.

    Returns the smallest integer value


    CEILING0 that is greater than or equal to a
    given number.

    Returns the largest integer value


    FLOOR) that is less than or equal to a given
    number.

    Returns the square root of a given


    sQRTO number.
    Ranking Functions
    SQL Ranking functions are used to assign
    a rank or row number to each row within
    a result set.
    EXAMPLES

    Assigns a unique ranking to each


    rowwithin a result set, where ties
    RANKO are assigned the same rank and
    the next consecutive rank is not
    skipped.

    Assigns a unique ranking to each


    row within a result set, where ties
    DENSE_RANK) are assigned the same rank and
    the next consecutive rank is
    skipped.

    Returns the number of rows that


    ROW_NUMBER)
    match a specified condition.
