VARCHAR2(size [BYTE | CHAR])

Variable-length character string having maximum length size bytes or characters. You must specify size for VARCHAR2. Minimum size is 1 byte or 1 character. Maximum size is:

• 32767 bytes or characters ifMAX_STRING_SIZE = EXTENDED

• 4000 bytes or characters ifMAX_STRING_SIZE = STANDARD

Refer to "Extended Data Types" for more information on the MAX_STRING_SIZEinitialization parameter.

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

NVARCHAR2(size)

Variable-length Unicode character string having maximum length size characters. You must specify size for NVARCHAR2. The number of bytes can be up to two timessize for AL16UTF16 encoding and three times size for UTF8 encoding. Maximumsize is determined by the national character set definition, with an upper limit of:

• 32767 bytes if MAX_STRING_SIZE =EXTENDED

• 4000 bytes if MAX_STRING_SIZE =STANDARD

Refer to "Extended Data Types" for more information on the MAX_STRING_SIZEinitialization parameter.

NUMBER [ (p [, s]) ]

Number having precision p and scale s. The precision p can range from 1 to 38. The scale s can range from -84 to 127. Both precision and scale are in decimal digits. ANUMBER value requires from 1 to 22 bytes.

2

FLOAT [(p)]

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

LONG

Character data of variable length up to 2 gigabytes, or 2³¹ -1 bytes. Provided for backward compatibility.

12

DATE

Valid date range from January 1, 4712 BC, to December 31, 9999 AD. The default format is determined explicitly by theNLS_DATE_FORMAT parameter or implicitly by the NLS_TERRITORY parameter. The size is fixed at 7 bytes. This data type contains the datetime fields YEAR, MONTH, DAY, HOUR,MINUTE, and SECOND. It does not have fractional seconds or a time zone.

100

BINARY_FLOAT

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

101

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 of digits in the fractional part of the SECOND datetime field. Accepted values of fractional_seconds_precision are 0 to 9. The default is 6. The default format is determined explicitly by theNLS_TIMESTAMP_FORMAT parameter or implicitly by the NLS_TERRITORY parameter. The size is 7 or 11 bytes, depending on the precision. This data type contains the datetime fields YEAR, MONTH, DAY, HOUR,MINUTE, and SECOND. It contains fractional seconds but does not have a time zone.

181

TIMESTAMP[(fractional_seconds_precision)] WITHTIME ZONE

All values of TIMESTAMP as well as time zone displacement value, wherefractional_seconds_precision is the number of digits in the fractional part of theSECOND datetime field. Accepted values are 0 to 9. The default is 6. The default format is determined explicitly by theNLS_TIMESTAMP_FORMAT parameter or implicitly by the NLS_TERRITORY parameter. The size is fixed 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_precision)] WITHLOCAL TIME ZONE

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

• Data is normalized to the database time zone when it is stored in the database.

• When the data is retrieved, 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_TERRITORYparameter. The size is 7 or 11 bytes, depending on the precision.

182

INTERVAL YEAR [(year_precision)] TOMONTH

Stores a period of time in years and months, where year_precision is the number of digits in the YEAR datetime field. Accepted values are 0 to 9. The default is 2. The size is fixed at 5 bytes.

183

INTERVAL DAY [(day_precision)] TOSECOND[(fractional_seconds_precision)]

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_precisionis the number of digits in the fractional part of the SECOND field. Accepted values are 0 to 9. The default is 6.

The size is fixed at 11 bytes.

23

RAW(size)

Raw binary data of length size bytes. You must specify size for a RAW value. Maximum size is:

• 32767 bytes if MAX_STRING_SIZE =EXTENDED

• 2000 bytes if MAX_STRING_SIZE =STANDARD

Refer to "Extended Data Types" for more information on the MAX_STRING_SIZEinitialization parameter.

24

LONG RAW

Raw binary data of variable length up to 2 gigabytes.

69

ROWID

Base 64 string representing the unique address of a row in its table. This data type is primarily for values returned by the ROWIDpseudocolumn.

208

UROWID [(size)]

Base 64 string representing the logical address of a row of an index-organized table. The optional size is the size of a column of type UROWID. The maximum size and default is 4000 bytes.

96

CHAR [(size [BYTE | CHAR])]

Fixed-length character data of length sizebytes or characters. Maximum size is 2000 bytes or characters. Default and minimumsize is 1 byte.

BYTE and CHAR have the same semantics as for VARCHAR2.

96

NCHAR[(size)]

Fixed-length character data of length sizecharacters. The number of bytes can be up to two times size for AL16UTF16 encoding and three times size for UTF8 encoding. Maximum size is determined by the national character set definition, with an upper limit of 2000 bytes. Default and minimum size is 1 character.

112

CLOB

112

NCLOB

A character large object containing Unicode characters. Both fixed-width and variable-width character sets are supported, both using the database national character set. Maximum size is (4 gigabytes - 1) * (database block size). Stores national character set data.

113

BLOB

A binary large object. Maximum size is (4 gigabytes - 1) * (database block size).

114

BFILE
