log_exp - BETWEEN

Syntax

... operand [NOT] BETWEEN operand1 AND operand2 ...

Effect

A logical expression with the language element BETWEEN checks where an interval belongs.

The logical expression checks whether the content of an operand operand lies within a closed interval that is enclosed between the operands operand1 and operand2. The logical expression is equivalent to the following link of logical expressions with Boolean operators:

... [NOT] ( operand >= operand1 AND operand <= operand2 ) ...

The rules for both comparisons are described in comparison rules.

For operand, operand1 and operand2 you can specify:

• Data objects, predefined functions, and functional methods. The latter use the return value as the operand.

• Arithmetic expressions, character string expressions, or bit expressions. Single operands must then have the data type numeric, character-like, or byte-like.
