Greetings,
I notice some talk about date problems and interestingly enough planning
out an application in which I will need to be able to manipulate dates.
I notice however that there seems to be a discrepancy with the day or
week in 7.0.3
---
pmhcc=# select date_part('dow','now'::timestamp);date_part
----------- 1
(1 row)
pmhcc=# select to_char('now'::timestamp,'D');to_char
---------2
(1 row)
pmhcc=# select version(); version
---------------------------------------------------------------------PostgreSQL 7.0.3 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by
gccegcs-2.91.66
(1 row)
pmhcc=# select now(); now
------------------------2001-01-29 12:57:46-05
(1 row)

Now as far as I know, Sunday is supposed to 1, so I would think that
date_part is doing something funky unless I am mis-understanding
something. I was hoping that someone might be able to shead some light
on this. Thanks.
