Using CONVERT()

The CONVERT() function can help you to convert dates into the desired format.

You need to get a report of the airports, carriers, canceled flights, and registration dates, registered in the first six months of the year 2014. You realize that the format of the registration_date column is yyyy-mm-dd, and you want to show the results in the format of mm/dd/yyyy, which is hardcoded as 101, using the CONVERT() function.

Notice that the type of the registration_date column is VARCHAR(10) and not a date.
