Understanding SQLite’s FLOOR() Function
The FLOOR() function in SQLite returns the largest integer value that is less than or equal to a given numeric expression. Essentially, it “rounds down” a decimal number to the nearest integer below it.
This function is useful in cases where you want to discard the decimal portion of a number without rounding up.
Continue readingHow to Use COALESCE() to Handle NULL Values in DuckDB
NULL values in databases can be tricky to handle and often lead to unexpected results. DuckDB’s COALESCE() function provides an easy way to manage NULL values effectively.
In this article, we’ll explore the COALESCE() function in DuckDB with some practical examples.
An Introduction to SQLite’s LIKELY() Function
SQLite provides a range of tools to help optimize query execution. One of these is the likely() function, which helps developers guide the query planner by hinting at the probability of certain conditions being true.
In this article, we’ll look at the likely() function, understanding how it works, its syntax, some use cases, and its impact on query performance.
An Overview of the LIKELIHOOD() Function in SQLite
SQLite is a lightweight, serverless database engine widely used for its simplicity and flexibility. Among its many functions, the likelihood() function is a handy option that allows you to influence query planning by providing hints about the probability of certain conditions being true.
This article explores the details of the likelihood() function, its syntax, use cases, and a practical example to demonstrate its application.
A Quick Overview of the ACOSH() Function in SQLite
The ACOSH() function in SQLite calculates the inverse hyperbolic cosine of a given number. The inverse hyperbolic cosine of a number is the value whose hyperbolic cosine equals that number.
Understanding SQLite’s COSH() Function
The COSH() function in SQLite calculates the hyperbolic cosine of a number, which is similar to the regular cosine function, but for hyperbolic geometry.
Understanding the SQRT() Function in SQLite
In SQLite, the SQRT() function calculates the square root of a number. It returns the value which, when multiplied by itself, equals the input number.
Note that SQLite returns NULL if you try to calculate the square root of a negative number, NULL, or a value of the wrong type.
A Quick Look at SQLite’s ASINH() Function
The ASINH() function in SQLite calculates the inverse hyperbolic sine of a given numeric value. The result is the value whose hyperbolic sine is the specified number.
Understanding SQLite’s PI() Function
The PI() function in SQLite returns the mathematical constant π (pi), which is approximately 3.14159265358979. It is used to represent the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter.
The PI() function is commonly employed in mathematical computations, particularly in geometry, trigonometry, and other scientific calculations involving circles and angles.
