You can extract the year from a date in Oracle using the EXTRACT function or the TO_CHAR function.

  1. Using EXTRACT:
1
2
SELECT EXTRACT(YEAR FROM your_date_column) AS year
FROM your_table;


  1. Using TO_CHAR:
1
2
SELECT TO_CHAR(your_date_column, 'YYYY') AS year
FROM your_table;


Replace your_date_column and your_table with your actual column and table names. These queries will return the year as a numeric or string value, depending on which function you use.
