Subj:   Which part of the year

Hi All

I'm struggling (once more) with date and time functions in Teradata:

This time I'd like to know which part of the year is already over. The following query:

     select (date-cast(extract(year from date) || '-01-01' as date)) / 365.00000

works fine, but it's not so easy to understand and it's not correct for leap years (divison by 366)

Browsing the Teradata-Forum I found this code:

     sel  date (format 'ddd')(char(3));

which would be perfect for my task, unfortunately it's not possible to calculate with it (divison by 365 is not possible).


Thanks for your help.
