Use the LAST_DAY function. You can look it up in the SQL Reference
manual.

Subject: help with a monthly rollup
I need to rollup data by month.
There are a couple ways to do this.
I have a date field. So I can rollup with a to_char(mydate,'YYYYMM')
this requires a where clause as followings
where to_char(mydate,'YYYYMM') = pSomeMonth;
This means I need a function based index to support this. We have alot
of data, so where possible, I want to avoid adding more indexes. Is
there a way to calculate what the last
day of the month is?
so I can use a between as follows
where myDate between to_date(01-MON-YYYY') and
to_date(LASTDAYOFMONTH-MON-YYYY')
Since the last day of the month can be
28,29,30,31
