To cast a date as a date string in Presto, you can use the date_format function. Here is an example of how you can cast a date as a date string in Presto:

1
2
SELECT date_format(your_date_column, 'yyyy-MM-dd') AS date_string
FROM your_table_name;


In the above query, replace your_date_column with the name of the column that contains the date you want to cast, and your_table_name with the name of your table. The date_format function formats the date in the specified pattern 'yyyy-MM-dd', which represents the year, month, and day in a date string format.


You can modify the date format pattern based on your requirements to cast the date as a different date string format.
