  • A Handy SQL Timestamp Function

    July 9, 2008 Hey, Ted

    I have found a great tool for working with timestamp data. I have used it for performance tracking and analyzing data intervals. It’s SQL’s Timestampdiff function, and I think you should tell readers of Four Hundred Guru about it.

    Timestampdiff returns the difference between two timestamps in the interval of your choice. The first parameter for the timestampdiff function is the interval to use. Valid values for this parameter are:

    1

    Fractions of a second

    2

    Seconds

    4

    Minutes

    8

    Hours

    16

    Days

    32

    Weeks

    64

    Months

    128

    Quarters

    256

    Years

It enables users to approve login requests or generate one-time passwords directly from their mobile device, ensuring that access is granted only after a second, trusted factor is verified.
