DATE
Description
DATE Function
Syntax:
DATE(expr)
Turn the input type into a DATE type
The current range of DATE type is ['0000-01-01', '9999-12-31'], and it will be printed as 'YYYY-MM-DD' by default.
Note
If you use version 1.2 and above, we strongly recommended that you use the DATEV2 type instead of the DATE type since DATEV2 is more efficient.
Example
mysql> SELECT DATE('2003-12-31 01:02:03');
-> '2003-12-31'
