2020-05-06 06:13:29 +00:00
Checks whether the argument is [NULL](../../sql-reference/syntax.md#null-literal).
2020-03-20 10:10:48 +00:00
``` sql
isNotNull(x)
```
**Arguments:**
- `x` — A value with a non-compound data type.
**Returned value**
- `0` if `x` is `NULL`.
- `1` if `x` is not `NULL`.
**Example**

## coalesce {#coalesce}
Checks from left to right whether `NULL` arguments were passed and returns the first non-`NULL` argument.
2020-03-20 10:10:48 +00:00
``` sql
coalesce(x,...)
```
**Arguments:**
- Any number of parameters of a non-compound type. All parameters must be compatible by data type.
**Returned values**
- The first non-`NULL` argument.
- `NULL`, if all arguments are `NULL`.
**Example**
Consider a list of contacts that may specify multiple ways to contact a customer.
2020-03-20 10:10:48 +00:00
``` text
┌─name─────┬─mail─┬─phone─────┬──icq─┐
│ client 1 │ ᴺᵁᴸᴸ │ 123-45-67 │ 123 │
│ client 2 │ ᴺᵁᴸᴸ │ ᴺᵁᴸᴸ │ ᴺᵁᴸᴸ │
└──────────┴──────┴───────────┴──────┘
```
The `mail` and `phone` fields are of type String, but the `icq` field is `UInt32`, so it needs to be converted to `String`.
Get the first available contact method for the customer from the contact list:
2020-03-20 10:10:48 +00:00
``` sql
SELECT coalesce(mail, phone, CAST(icq,'Nullable(String)')) FROM aBook;
```
2020-03-20 10:10:48 +00:00
``` text
┌─name─────┬─coalesce(mail, phone, CAST(icq, 'Nullable(String)'))─┐

└──────────┴──────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
```
2020-03-20 10:10:48 +00:00
## ifNull {#ifnull}
Returns an alternative value if the main argument is `NULL`.
2020-03-20 10:10:48 +00:00
``` sql
ifNull(x,alt)
```
**Arguments:**
- `x` — The value to check for `NULL`.
- `alt` — The value that the function returns if `x` is `NULL`.
**Returned values**
- The value `x`, if `x` is not `NULL`.
- The value `alt`, if `x` is `NULL`.
**Example**
2020-03-20 10:10:48 +00:00
``` sql
SELECT ifNull('a', 'b');
