DATE_FORMAT(date ,format )
Formats the date value according to the format string.
The following specifiers may be used in the format string. As of MySQL 3.23, the “% ” character is required before format specifier characters. In earlier versions of MySQL, “% ” was optional.
The %v , %V , %x , and %X format specifiers are available as of MySQL 3.23.8. %f is available as of MySQL 4.1.1.
Ranges for the month and day specifiers begin with zero due to the fact that MySQL permits the storing of incomplete dates such as 2014-00-00 (as of MySQL 3.23).
As of MySQL 4.1.21, the language used for day and month names and abbreviations is controlled by the value of the lc_time_names system variable (Section 9.8, “MySQL Server Locale Support”).
As of MySQL 4.1.23, DATE_FORMAT() returns a string with a character set and collation given by character_set_connection and collation_connection so that it can return month and weekday names containing non-ASCII characters. Before 4.1.23, the return value is a binary string. mysql> SELECT DATE_FORMAT(2009-10-04 22:23:00, %W %M %Y);
-> Sunday October 2009
mysql> SELECT DATE_FORMAT(2007-10-04 22:23:00, %H:%i:%s);
-> 22:23:00
mysql> SELECT DATE_FORMAT(1900-10-04 22:23:00,
-> %D %y %a %d %m %b %j);
-> 4th 00 Thu 04 10 Oct 277
mysql> SELECT DATE_FORMAT(1997-10-04 22:23:00,
