MaxCompute:LASTDAY

Last Updated:Jul 11, 2023

Returns the last day of the month in which a date value falls. Only the day component is truncated. The hour, minute, and second components are expressed as 00:00:00.

Syntax

datetime lastday(datetime <date>)

Parameters

date: a date value of the DATETIME type. The date value is in the yyyy-mm-dd hh:mi:ss format. If the input value is of the STRING type and the MaxCompute V1.0 data type edition is used in your project, the input value is implicitly converted into the DATETIME type before calculation.

Return value

A value of the DATETIME type is returned. The return value is in the yyyy-mm-dd hh:mi:ss format. The return value varies based on the following rules:

  • If the value of date is not of the DATETIME or STRING type or the format does not meet the requirements, an error is returned.

  • If the value of date is null, null is returned.

Sample data

This section provides sample source data for you to understand how to use date functions. In this topic, a table named mf_date_fun_t is created and data is inserted into the table. Sample statements:

create table if not exists mf_date_fun_t(
    id      int,
    date1   date,
    datetime1   datetime,
    timestamp1 timestamp,
    date2   date,
    datetime2   datetime,
    timestamp2 timestamp,
    date3 string,
    date4 bigint);
insert into mf_date_fun_t values
