The DATETIME
Characteristics
1. Format: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS
2. Range: From January 1, 1000 to December 31, 9999.
3. Storage Size: 8 bytes.
4. Timezone: Does not convert or store timezone information. 
It stores the date and time as-is, without considering the server’s timezone 
settings.

Using DATETIME:
CREATE TABLE events (
    event_id INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
    event_name VARCHAR(100),
    event_time DATETIME
);

INSERT INTO events (event_name, event_time)
VALUES ('Meeting', '2024-09-13 10:00:00');

The TIMESTAMP
Characteristics
1. Format: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS
2. Range: From January 1, 1970 to December 31, 2038 (UNIX epoch time).
3.Storage Size: 4 bytes for values before the year 2038; 8 bytes for values 
after.
4. Tiimezone: Converts values to UTC for storage and converts back to the 
current timezone for retrieval based on the server’s timezone settings.

Using TIMESTAMP:
CREATE TABLE logs (
    log_id INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
    log_description VARCHAR(255),
    log_time TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
);

INSERT INTO logs (log_description)
VALUES ('User logged in');

The DATETIME type is used when you need values that contain both date
and time information. MySQL retrieves and displays DATETIME values 
in 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS' format. The supported range is '1000-01-01 00:00:00'
to '9999-12-31 23:59:59'.

...

The TIMESTAMP data type has a range of '1970-01-01 00:00:01' UTC 
to '2038-01-09 03:14:07' UTC. It has varying properties, 
depending on the MySQL version and the SQL mode the server is running in.
