and dd the day
-- Six digits representing time in 24-hour format, where hh stands for hour, mm
minutes and ss seconds
Syntax for Complex Expressions
A complex expression combines several simple expressions using logical operators. Each expression must be
enclosed in parentheses. The syntax for a complex expression follows:
(Simple Expression) Logical_Operator (Simple Expression)
As described in the previous section a simple expressions should have three basic elements, namely, a Variable,
Relation, and Value. Legal values for each element are described under the syntax for simple expressions.
