Doesn't work in Oracle 10g:
SELECT ycis_id, tindex from x where ycis_id = 15;
YCIS_ID TINDEX
======= ====== 15 10 15 20
SELECT ycis_id, min(tindex), avg(tindex) from x where ycis_id = 15;
ORA-00937: not a single-group group function
SELECT ycis_id, min(tindex), avg(tindex) from x where ycis_id = 15 GROUP BY ycis_id;
YCIS_ID MIN(TINDEX) AVG(TINDEX)
======= =========== =========== 15 10 15
