It is the final function. It doesn't need a loop because of the
bayes_token_tmp function I added. The array is passed to it and it
returns a record set so I can work off of it like it's a table. So the
function works the same way it before, but instead of using SELECT
intoken from TEMPTABLE, you use SELECT bayes_token_tmp from
bayes_token_tmp(intokenary).
I think this is more efficient than the create table overhead,
especially because the incoming record set won't be to big.
