Function and Operator Reference

The usage of the functions and operators in TiDB is similar to MySQL. See Functions and Operators in MySQL.

In SQL statements, expressions can be used on the ORDER BY and HAVING clauses of the SELECT statement, the WHERE clause of SELECT/DELETE/UPDATE statements, and SET statements.

You can write expressions using literals, column names, NULL, built-in functions, operators and so on.
