Oracle To_date() function for converting into date datatype

Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem

Suppose I have table Entry as

Create table Entry(Entered number);

insert into Entry values(12122012);
insert into Entry values(10102013);
insert into Entry values(11112013);

select * from Entry;





Now lets change it to some meaningful  way , lets change it to date which it actually represents

SELECT  ENTERED,TO_DATE(ENTERED,'DDMMYYYY')
FROM     ENTRY;
