The WEEK_ISO function returns an integer between 1 and 53 that represents the week of the year. The week starts with Monday. Week 1 is the first week of the year to contain a Thursday, which is equivalent to the first week containing January 4. Thus, it is possible to have up to 3 days at the beginning of the year appear as the last week of the previous year or to have up to 3 days at the end of a year appear as the first week of the next year.

expression
The argument must be an expression that returns a value of one of the following built-in data types: a date, a timestamp, a character string, or a graphic string.

If expression is a character or graphic string, it must not be a CLOB or DBCLOB and its value must be a valid string representation of a date or timestamp. For the valid formats of string representations of dates and timestamps, see String representations of datetime values.

The result of the function is a large integer. If the argument can be null, the result can be null; if the argument is null, the result is the null value.
