I have a table where each row has an id unique identifier (separate from the one postgreql does automatically). I want to be able to do a certain SELECT query returning various rows, and also be able to check what the maximum id was among the rows in the result. Is it possible to do this all in the same query? Right now I do it in a very dumb way -- I execute the query to get all the data, and then I re-execute it as a subquery and pull out the max(id).
Thanks.
