EXAMPLES
CREATE TABLE timestamp_formats_example (
description varchar(30),
example TIMESTAMP(6)
);
-- The time zone affects the values
SET @@time_zone = '+00:00';
INSERT INTO timestamp_formats_example VALUES
('Date without time', '2019-12-30'),
('Full year', '2019-12-30 00:00:00'),
('Short year', '19-12-30 00:00:00.000'),
('Pipe delimiters', '19|2|3 19|00|00.123456'),
('Forward slash delimiter', '19/12/30 00/00/00.0');
SET @@time_zone = '-07:00';
INSERT INTO timestamp_formats_example VALUES
('Asterisk delimiter', '19*12*30 8*35*00'),
('Comma delimiter', '19,2,3 12,34,56.123');
The resulting data would look like this:
SET @@time_zone = '+00:00';
SELECT * FROM timestamp_formats_example;
