Hi all,
 
I want the last value from the group of rows. The table 'index_prices' is
 
index_code price_time price
 
XYZ            09:45:00   7.5
XYZ            09:46:00   7.4
XYZ            09:59:00   7.2
XYZ            10:00:00   7.3
XYZ            10:01:00   7.6
XYZ            10:02:00   7.3
.
.
.
 
The other table 'times' is for time interval
 
snapshot_time
 
10:00:00
10:30:00
11:00:00
 
I want the last value of the price between the interval of time. So I do
 
select tm.index_code, tm.price_date, t.snapshot_time, last(tm.price)
from index_prices_200703 tm, times t where tm.index_code = 'XYZ' and tm.price_time >= (t.snapshot_time - '30 minute' :: interval)::time and tm.price_time < t.snapshot_time 
group by t.snapshot_time, tm.price_date, tm.index_code order by tm.index_code, tm.price_date, t.snapshot_time;
 
The last() doesn't work. Can this be done using sub query?
 
Thanks in advance
