The ISO_WEEK function in H2 database is used to determine the ISO week number for a given date.

2. Syntax​

The syntax for the ISO_WEEK function in H2 database is as follows:

ISO_WEEK(date)

Arguments​

  • date: The date for which the ISO week number needs to be determined. It should be a valid date value.

Return​

  • The ISO_WEEK function returns the ISO week number for the given date as an integer.

3. Notes​

  • The ISO_WEEK function in H2 database follows the ISO 8601 standard for week numbering. According to this standard, a week starts on Monday and the first week of the year is the week that contains the first Thursday.
  • The ISO_WEEK function considers the week containing January 4th as the first week of the year. Therefore, dates before January 4th may have a week number of the previous year.
