Just to be clearer, I'd like work on the out function only due to my
internal assignment. (Since David planned it for PG18, so it is better
say things clearer eariler). I'd put parts of out(print) function
refactor in the next 2 days. I think it deserves a double check before
working on *all* the out function.
select count(*), count(distinct typoutput) from pg_type;
count | count
-------+-------
621 | 97
(1 row)
select typoutput, count(*) from pg_type group by typoutput having
count(*) > 1 order by 2 desc;
typoutput | count
-----------------+-------
array_out | 296
record_out | 214
multirange_out | 6
range_out | 6
varcharout | 3
int4out | 2
timestamptz_out | 2
nameout | 2
textout | 2
