Usage example

Oracle

Query

SELECT
	TO_TIMESTAMP('03/08/2009, 12:47 AM', 'dd/mm/yy, hh:mi AM')+62.40750856543442
From DUAL;	

Result

Snowflake

Query

SELECT
		--** MSC-WARNING - MSCEWI1020 - CUSTOM UDF 'DATE_ADD_UDF' INSERTED. **
		PUBLIC.DATE_ADD_UDF(
		TO_TIMESTAMP('03/08/2009, 12:47 AM', 'dd/mm/yy, hh:mi AM'), 62.40750856543442)
From DUAL;

Result

Known Issues

1. Differences in time precision

When there are operations between Dates or Timestamps and Floats, the time may differ from Oracle's. There is an action item to fix this issue.
