2 SQL Functions
This chapter presents the syntax for SQL functions.
This chapter includes the following section:
Syntax for SQL Functions
A function is a command that manipulates data items and returns a single value.
The sections that follow show each SQL function and its related syntax. Refer to Subclauses for the syntax of the subclauses.

Oracle Database SQL Language Reference for detailed information about SQL functions
ABS(n)
ACOS(n)
ADD_MONTHS(date, integer)
Aggregate functions return a single result row based on groups of rows, rather than on single rows.
