BTW, date() itself is not anything but a function.
date(z) takes the current date of the server and trasnform it into a number
in the range of 1 to 366.

If the date were 2014-01-01, date(z) would return 1.
Dayofyear() takes that number and transform it back to the calendar date.

In my use of "where", I meant that as "an example", not as used by mysql
select from where stuff.
