Find the difference between dates in the form of months with MySQL
Let us first create a table −
mysql> create table DemoTable -> ( -> Date1 date, -> Date2 date -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (1.04 sec)
Insert some records in the table using insert command &miuns;
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('2017-01-10','2017-12-10');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.15 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('2018-12-31','2015-01-02');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.17 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable values('2020-03-01','2019-06-15');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.19 sec)Display all records from the table using select statement −
mysql> select *from DemoTable;
This will produce the following output −
+------------+------------+ | Date1 | Date2 | +------------+------------+ | 2017-01-10 | 2017-12-10 | | 2018-12-31 | 2015-01-02 | | 2020-03-01 | 2019-06-15 | +------------+------------+ 3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Here is the query to find the difference between dates in the form of months −
mysql> select abs(timestampdiff(MONTH,Date1,Date2)) from DemoTable;
This will produce the following output −
+---------------------------------------+ | abs(timestampdiff(MONTH,Date1,Date2)) | +---------------------------------------+ | 11 | | 47 | | 8 | +---------------------------------------+ 3 rows in set (0.03 sec)
