When using JSON with SQL Server, you can use the JSON_VALUE() function to return a scalar value from a JSON string.
To use this function, you provide two arguments; the JSON expression, and the property to extract.
ISJSON() Examples in SQL Server (T-SQL)
When using SQL Server, you can use the ISJSON() function to test whether or not a string expression contains valid JSON.
If the expression contains valid JSON, ISJSON() returns 1, otherwise it returns 0.
From SQL Server 2022, we also have the option of testing for a specific JSON type.
SQL Server FOR JSON PATH Examples (T-SQL)
When using SQL Server, you can use the FOR JSON clause in a query to format the results as JSON. When doing this, you must choose either the AUTO or the PATH option. This article contains examples of using the PATH option.
SQL Server FOR JSON AUTO Examples (T-SQL)
In SQL Server you can use the FOR JSON clause in a query to format the results as JSON. When doing this, you must choose either the AUTO or the PATH option. This article contains examples of using the AUTO option.
ORD() Examples – MySQL
In MySQL, the ORD() function returns the numeric value of the leftmost character of a given string. You provide the string as an argument.
If the leftmost character is a multibyte character, the returned value is calculated from the numeric values of its constituent bytes. If the leftmost character is not a multibyte character, the return value is its ASCII code (which is the same result as when using the ASCII() function).
YEARWEEK() Examples – MySQL
In MySQL, the YEARWEEK() function returns the year and week for a given date. You provide the date as an argument, and the function will return the result accordingly.
You also have the option of specifying whether to start the week on Sunday or Monday, and whether the week should be in the range 0 to 53 or 1 to 53.
WEEK() Examples – MySQL
In MySQL, you can use the WEEK() function to get the week number for a given date. By “week number” I mean the week of the year.
To use the function, simply provide the date as an argument and the week number will be returned.
You also have the option of specifying whether to start the week on Sunday or Monday, and whether the week should be in the range 0 to 53 or 1 to 53.
