The SECOND SQL Function in MySQL and MariaDB - Seconds of date and time

SECONDSyntax:SECOND(Date and Time)
Return value:INTEGER
Function type:Date and Time function
Function Description

The SECOND() function returns the Seconds from "Date and Time" in the range of 0-59.

The "Date and Time" argument must be of type DATE, DATETIME or TIME.

With arguments of type DATE, the function always returns 0.

If the argument is a string containing only a date, the function returns an incorrect value.

If the "Date and Time" value is invalid or NULL, the SECOND() function returns NULL.

How to use the SECOND() function in MySQL and MariaDB databases

In MySQL and MariaDB the SECOND() function extracts the seconds part from a given "Time" or "Date and Time" expression or data-value, returning an integer value from 0 to 59 representing the second. Column names of tables or other expressions can also be used as parameters in order to be able to work with the seconds component of a time value in SQL queries, SQL scripts or other time-based operations in the database.
