DAYOFYEAR

The schema is SYSIBM.

The argument must be an expression that returns a value of one of the following built-in data types: a date, a timestamp, a character string, or a graphic string.

If expression is a character or graphic string, it must not be a CLOB or DBCLOB, and its value must be a valid string representation of a date or timestamp with an actual length that is not greater than 255 bytes. For the valid formats of string representations of dates and timestamps, see String representations of datetime values.

If expression is a timestamp with a time zone value, or a valid string representation of a timestamp with a time zone, the result is determined from the UTC representation of the datetime value.

The result of the function is a large integer.

The result can be null; if the argument is null, the result is the null value.

   SELECT AVG(DAYOFYEAR(HIREDATE))
     INTO :AVG_DAY_OF_YEAR
     FROM DSN8A10.EMP;

Example 2: The following invocations of the DAYOFYEAR function returns the same result:

SELECT DAYOFYEAR('2003-01-02-20.00.00'), 
			DAYOFYEAR('2003-01-02-12.00.00-08:00'), 
			DAYOFYEAR('2003-01-03-05.00.00+09:00') 
		FROM SYSIBM.SYSDUMMY1;

The results for this SELECT statement are 2 ,2 ,3.

When the input argument contains a time zone, the result is determined from the UTC representation of the input value. The string representations of a timestamp with a time zone in the SELECT statement all have the same UTC representation: 2003-01-02-20.00.00.
