Select rows for a specific date using TIMESTAMP datatype

Question

I have the tables below in my database:

Student    (Stud_no: string, Stud_name: string)
Membership (Mem_no: string, Stud_no: string)
Book       (book_no: string,         


        

Answer 1

Just write you query as:

AND iss_date >= '2019-08-06'
AND iss_date <  '2019-08-07'

Or more conveniently:

AND iss_date >= '2019-08-06'
AND iss_date <  '2019-08-06' + INTERVAL 1 DAY

While this looks lengthy, it can use indexes more efficiently and very generic.
