| 8 | TIMESTAMP | 8 | A nullable timestamp type with the same usage as the primary column timestamp |
| 9 | BINARY(*M*) | *M* | A nullable string type whose length is *M*, any exceeded chars will be automatically truncated, the maximum length of *M* is 65526, but as maximum row size is 64K bytes, the actual upper limit will generally less than 65526. This type of string only supports ASCii encoded chars. |
| 10 | NCHAR(*M*) | 4 * *M* | A nullable string type whose length is *M*, any exceeded chars will be truncated. The **`NCHAR`** type supports Unicode encoded chars. |
| 9 | BINARY(*M*) | *M* | A nullable string type whose length is *M*, error should be threw with exceeded chars, the maximum length of *M* is 65526, but as maximum row size is 64K bytes, the actual upper limit will generally less than 65526. This type of string only supports ASCii encoded chars. |
| 10 | NCHAR(*M*) | 4 * *M* | A nullable string type whose length is *M*, error should be threw with exceeded chars. The **`NCHAR`** type supports Unicode encoded chars. |
All the keywords in a SQL statement are case-insensitive, but strings values are case-sensitive and must be quoted by a pair of `'` or `"`. To quote a `'` or a `"` , you can use the escape character `\`.
