Single-Row Functions
Single row functions:
• Manipulate data items
• Accept arguments and return one value
• Act on each row returned
• Return one result per row
• May modify the data type
• Can be nested
• Accept arguments which can be a column or an expression

Example of RR Date Format
To find employees hired prior to 1990, use the RR format, which produces the same results whether the command is run in 1999 or now:
SELECT last_name, TO_CHAR(hire_date, 'DD-Mon-YYYY')FROM employeesWHERE hire_date < TO_DATE('01-Jan-90', 'DD-Mon-RR');
