VARCHAR2(size [BYTE | CHAR])

Variable-length(可变的长) character string having maximum length size bytes or characters. Maximum sizeis 4000 bytes or characters, and minimum is 1 byte or 1 character. You must specify(指定) size for VARCHAR2.

BYTE indicates that the column will have byte length semantics. CHAR indicates that the column will have character semantics.

1

NVARCHAR2(size)

Variable-length Unicode character string having maximum length size characters. The number of bytes can be up to two times size for AL16UTF16 encoding(编码) and three times size for UTF8 encoding. Maximum size isdetermined(决定) by the national character set definition(定义), with an upper limit(限制) of 4000 bytes. You mustspecify size for NVARCHAR2.

2

NUMBER [ (p [, s]) ]

Number having precision(精确度) p and scale(小数) s. The precision p can range from 1 to 38. The scale s can range from -84 to 127. Both precision andscale are in decimal digits(十进制小数). A NUMBER valuerequires(规定) from 1 to 22 bytes.

2

FLOAT [(p)]

A subtype of the NUMBER data type having precision p. A FLOAT value is represented(代表) internally(内部) as NUMBER. The precision p can range from 1 to 126binary digits(二进制). A FLOAT value requires from 1 to 22 bytes.

LONG

Character data of variable length up to 2 gigabytes, or 2³¹ -1 bytes. Provided for backwardcompatibility(兼容).

12

DATE

Valid(有效的) date range from January 1, 4712 BC, to December 31, 9999 AD. The default format isdetermined(决定) explicitly(明确) by the NLS_DATE_FORMAT parameter(参数) or implicitly(绝对的) by the NLS_TERRITORYparameter. The size is fixed(固定) at 7 bytes. This data type contains(包含) the datetime fields(字段) YEAR, MONTH,DAY, HOUR, MINUTE, and SECOND. It does not have fractional seconds(分数秒)or a time zone(时区).

21

BINARY_FLOAT

32-bit floating point number. This data type requires 4 bytes.

22

BINARY_DOUBLE

64-bit floating point number. This data type requires 8 bytes.

180

TIMESTAMP [(fractional_seconds_precision)]

Year, month, and day values of date, as well as hour, minute, and second values of time, where fractional_seconds_precision is the number ofdigits(数字) in the fractional part of the SECOND(次要) datetime field. Accepted(公认的) values of fractional_seconds_precision are 0 to 9. The default is 6. The default format is determined explicitly by the NLS_TIMESTAMP_FORMAT parameter or implicitly(绝对的) by theNLS_TERRITORY parameter. The size is 7 or 11 bytes, depending(依赖) on the precision(精度). This data type contains(包含) the datetime fields YEAR, MONTH, DAY, HOUR, MINUTE, and SECOND. Itcontains fractional(包含) seconds but does not have a time zone.

181

TIMESTAMP [(fractional_seconds)] WITH TIME ZONE

All values of TIMESTAMP as well as time zonedisplacement(替代) value, where fractional_seconds_precision is the number of digitsin the fractional part of the SECOND datetime field.Accepted values are 0 to 9. The default is 6. The default format is determined explicitly by the NLS_TIMESTAMP_FORMAT parameter or implicitly by the NLS_TERRITORY parameter. The size is fixed(固定) at 13 bytes. This data type contains the datetime fields YEAR, MONTH, DAY, HOUR, MINUTE, SECOND,TIMEZONE_HOUR, and TIMEZONE_MINUTE. It has fractional seconds and an explicit time zone.

231

TIMESTAMP [(fractional_seconds)] WITH LOCAL TIME ZONE

All values of TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE, with the following exceptions:

• Data is normalized(规范的) to the database time zone when it is stored in the database.

• When the data is retrieved(检查), users see the data in the session time zone.

The default format is determined explicitly by the NLS_TIMESTAMP_FORMAT parameter or implicitly by the NLS_TERRITORY parameter. The size is 7 or 11 bytes, depending on the precision(精度).

182

INTERVAL YEAR [(year_precision)] TO MONTH

Stores(储存) a period(阶段) of time in years and months, where year_precision is the number of digits(位数) in theYEAR datetime field. Accepted(公认的) values are 0 to 9. The default is 2. The size is fixed at 5 bytes.

183

INTERVAL DAY [(day_precision)] TO SECOND[(fractional_seconds)]

Stores a period of time in days, hours, minutes, and seconds, where

• day_precision is the maximum number of digits in the DAY datetime field. Accepted values are 0 to 9. The default is 2.

• fractional_seconds_precision is the number of digits in the fractional part of the SECONDfield. Accepted values are 0 to 9. The default is 6.

The size is fixed at 11 bytes.

23

RAW(size)

Raw(最初的) binary data of length size bytes. Maximum size is 2000 bytes. You must specify size for a RAW value.
