Introduction
► DBMS MySQL supports a number of SQL standard data types in various categories.
Following Data types are are based on MySQL community server

★ Numeric

★ DATE TIME

★ DATE

★ TIMESTAMP

★ String

Fixed-Point Types
► In standard SQL the syntax DECIMAL(5,2) (where 5 is the precision and 2 is the scale.) be
able to store any value with five digits and two decimals. Therefore the value range will be from -
999.99 to 999.99. The syntax DECIMAL(M) is equivalent to DECIMAL(M,0). Similarly, the syntax
DECIMAL is equivalent to DECIMAL(M,0). MySQL supports both of these variant forms of
DECIMAL syntax. The default value of M is 10. If the scale is 0, DECIMAL values contain no
decimal point or fractional part.
The maximum number of digits for DECIMAL is 65, but the actual range for a given DECIMAL
column can be constrained by the precision or scale for a given column.
Bit Value Types

► The BIT data type is used to store bit-field values. A type of BIT(N) enables storage of N-bit
values. N can range from 1 to 64.

► To specify bit values, b'value' notation can be used. ‘value’ is a binary value written using
zeros and ones. For example, b'111' and b'10000000' represent 7 and 128, respectively
Date and Time Types
DATETIME, DATE, and TIMESTAMP
Types Description Display Range
Format

DATETIME Use when you need values containing both date and YYYY-MM- '1000-01-01
time information. DD 00:00:00' to '9999-
HH:MM:SS 12-31 23:59:59'.

DATE Use when you need only date information. YYYY-MM- '1000-01-01' to
DD '9999-12-31'.

TIMESTAMP Values are converted from the current timezone to UTC YYYY-MM- '1970-01-01
while storing, and converted back from UTC to the DD 00:00:01' UTC to
current time zone when retrieved. HH:MM:SS '2038-01-19
03:14:07' UTC
Time Type

► MySQL fetches and displays TIME values in 'HH:MM:SS' format or 'HHH:MM:SS' format
The range of. TIME values from '-838:59:59' to '838:59:59'. The hours part may be rather large
because not only the TIME type can be used to represent the time of day, i.e. less than 24
hours, but also the passed time or a time of interval between two events.

► The TIME values in MySQL can be recognized in different formats, some of which can
include a trailing fractional seconds part in up to 6 digits microseconds precision. The range for
TIME values is '-838:59:59.000000' to '838:59:59.000000'.
Year Type
► The YEAR type is a 1-byte type used to represent year values. It can be declared as
YEAR(2) or YEAR(4) to specify a display width of two or four characters. If no width is given
the default is four characters

String length Range

4-digit string '1901' to '2155'.

4-digit number 1901 to 2155.

1- or 2-digit string '0' to '99'. Values in the ranges '0' to '69' and '70' to '99' are converted to YEAR values in the
ranges 2000 to 2069 and 1970 to 1999.

1- or 2-digit 1 to 99. Values in the ranges 1 to 69 and 70 to 99 are converted to YEAR values in the
number ranges 2001 to 2069 and 1970 to 1999.
String Types
CHAR and VARCHAR Types
►The CHAR and VARCHAR types are similar, but differ in the way they are stored and
retrieved. They also differ in maximum length and in whether trailing spaces are retained.

padded with spaces to the specified
length.

VARCHAR Contains non-binary strings. Columns As stored. A value from 0 to 255 before
are variable-length strings. MySQL 5.0.3, and 0 to 65,535 in
5.0.3 and later versions.
BINARY and VARBINARY Types
► The BINARY and VARBINARY types are similar to CHAR and VARCHAR, except that
they contain binary strings rather than nonbinary strings.

Types Description Range in bytes

BINARY Contains binary strings. 0 to 255

VARBINARY Contains binary strings. A value from 0 to 255 before MySQL 5.0.3,
and 0 to 65,535 in 5.0.3 and later versions.
