optimize/cleanup SQL

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



For some reason this doesn't give me satisfaction that it's written
optimally, but I haven't found another way.

  SELECT round(CAST ((EXTRACT(EPOCH FROM clockout)
              -EXTRACT(EPOCH FROM clockin))/3600 AS NUMERIC),2) AS hours
    FROM timeclock;

The clockin and clockout columns are of type timestamp.

Is there a faster way to achieve this?  If not faster, a cleaner way
that executes as fast?
