MySQL's FROM_DAYS(~) method returns a date from a given number of days since the start of the standard calendar (0000-00-00).

WARNING

This function should only be used with dates after the start of the Gregorian calendar (1582), as it does not account for lost days when the calendar was switched from Julian calendar.

Parameters

1. N | number

A number of days since the start of the standard calendar.

Return value

The date corresponding to the input number of days since the start of the standard calendar.

Examples

To return a date representing 736725 days from the start of the standard calendar:

SELECT FROM_DAYS(736725);

| FROM_DAYS(736725) |
