Re: Date Time data types

As per my knowledge,

CLOCK_TIMESTAMP value changes every time you call it even in the same transaction

BEGIN
  ...
  CLOCK_TIMESTAMP()  -- Gives 2017-11-23 15:02:27.492867+05:30
  ...
  ...
  CLOCK_TIMESTAMP()  -- Gives different time as per current clock time
  ...
END;


CURRENT_TIMESTAMP 
​is the time of ​
start of current transaction
​ and does not change in the same transaction.​


BEGIN
  ...
  CURRENT_TIMESTAMP() -- Gives 2017-11-23 15:01:40.171462+05:30
  ...
  ...
  CURRENT_TIMESTAMP() -- Gives same time as previous call
  ...
END;

What is difference between CLOCK_TIMESTAMP() and CURRENT_TIMESTAMP?

Is there any specific use case to differentiate them .
