Semi-structured and structured data functions (Type Predicates)

IS_INTEGER¶

Returns TRUE if its VARIANT argument contains an integer value.

See also:

IS_<object_type> , IS_DECIMAL , IS_DOUBLE , IS_REAL

Syntax¶

IS_INTEGER( <variant_expr> )
Copy

Arguments¶

variant_expr

An expression that evaluates to a value of type VARIANT.

Examples¶

This shows how to use the function:

Create a table and data:

CREATE TABLE multiple_types (
    array1 VARIANT,
    array2 VARIANT,
    boolean1 VARIANT,
    char1 VARIANT,
    varchar1 VARIANT,
    decimal1 VARIANT,
    double1 VARIANT,
    integer1 VARIANT,
    object1 VARIANT
    );
INSERT INTO multiple_types 
     (array1, array2, boolean1, char1, varchar1, 
      decimal1, double1, integer1, object1)
   SELECT 
     TO_VARIANT(TO_ARRAY('Example')), 
     TO_VARIANT(ARRAY_CONSTRUCT('Array-like', 'example')), 
     TO_VARIANT(TRUE), 
     TO_VARIANT('X'), 
     TO_VARIANT('I am a real character'), 
     TO_VARIANT(1.23::DECIMAL(6, 3)),
     TO_VARIANT(3.21::DOUBLE),
     TO_VARIANT(15),
     TO_VARIANT(TO_OBJECT(PARSE_JSON('{"Tree": "Pine"}')))
     ;
Copy

Now run the query:

SELECT IS_INTEGER(integer1), IS_INTEGER(decimal1), IS_INTEGER(double1) FROM multiple_types;
+----------------------+----------------------+---------------------+
| IS_INTEGER(INTEGER1) | IS_INTEGER(DECIMAL1) | IS_INTEGER(DOUBLE1) |
|----------------------+----------------------+---------------------|
| True                 | False                | False               |
+----------------------+----------------------+---------------------+
Copy
