MySQL笔记之数据类型详解_MySQL

字符型数据

字符型数据可以使用定长或变长的字符串来实现，其不同点在于固定长度的字符串使用空格向右填充，以保证占用同样的字节数;变长字符串不需要向右填充，并且所有字节数可变。

char 定长型，字节长度固定，最大长度为255字节，可以使用char（20）这种方式限定长度，查询速度快，但不灵活

varchar 变长型，字节长度随数据量变化，最多可存储65535字节，varchar（20）可以限定长度，查询速度不及char，但使用灵活

如果需要存储文本或者文档，需要使用text类型数据，包括四种

tinytext 255字节

text 65535字节

mediumtext 16777215字节

longtext 4294967295字节

以上三种在进行分组排序或者比较的时候只采用前1024字节进行比较

字符集

对于拉丁语系，比如英语，其中每个字母只需要1个字节来存储;而其他一些语言，比如中文，包含了大量字符，每个字符的存储需要多个字节，因此这类字符集被称为多字符集

在mysql中，可以使用SHOW CAHRACTER SET语句查看字符集

其中Maxlen列大于1则代表此行为多字符集，比如gb2312,存储一个汉字最多需要2个字节，utf8最多则需要3个

数值型数据

整数型数据

浮点型数据

数值型数据可以定义为unsigned，对整数而已可以改变其范围，对浮点数而言可以限定其不能为负数

时间数据
