@findex EXTRACT()
@item EXTRACT(type FROM date)
The @code{EXTRACT()} function uses the same kinds of interval type
specifiers as @code{DATE_ADD()} or @code{DATE_SUB()}, but extracts parts
from the date rather than performing date arithmetic.
@example
mysql> SELECT EXTRACT(YEAR FROM "1999-07-02");

mysql> SELECT EXTRACT(YEAR_MONTH FROM "1999-07-02 01:02:03");
