Subject: timestamp difference in hours?
I found in a post from Jeff MacDonald the following example:
bignose=> \d foo
Table "foo"
Attribute | Type | Modifier
-----------+-----------+----------
start | timestamp |
stop | timestamp |
bignose=> select start,stop, stop-start as start_stop from foo;
start | stop | start_stop
------------------------+------------------------+------------

2000-06-22 20:40:40-03 | 2000-06-23 20:40:40-03 | 1 00:00
2000-06-22 20:40:53-03 | 2000-09-30 20:40:53-03 | 100 00:00
2000-06-22 20:41:08-03 | 2000-06-23 02:41:08-03 | 06:00
2000-06-22 20:41:30-03 | 2010-11-22 19:41:30-04 | 3805 00:00
(5 rows)
Is it possible to get the start_stop field in hours ?
And not in days, hours ?
ex: 1 00:00 -> 24:00
In postgres what is the difference between
the type datetime and timestamp?
Thanks in advance
Alex
