MySQL:seleziona tutte le date in un intervallo anche se non sono presenti record

Spero che tu riesca a capire il resto.

where date >'2011-01-02 00:00:00.000' and date < NOW()
order by date

Con

select n3.num*100+n2.num*10+n1.num as date

otterrai una colonna con numeri da 0 a max(n3)*100+max(n2)*10+max(n1)

Poiché qui abbiamo max n3 come 3, SELECT restituirà 399, più 0 -> 400 record (date nel calendario).

Puoi ottimizzare il tuo calendario dinamico limitandolo, ad esempio, da min(date) you have to now().
