Hi All,
This is our complete patch for implementation of WITHIN GROUP.
Functions supported:
percentile_disc
percentile_cont for float8 and intervals
percentile_disc and percentile_cont support arrays of percentiles as well.
mode
rank
dense_rank
percent_rank
cume_dist
The patch also adds support for user defined ordered set functions
with CREATE AGGREGATE.
Polymorphism is now supported, with the original gripes about it now
solved. Essentially, we have added
a new field in pg_aggregate, aggordnargs, which we use it to verify,
having looked up the function, that it is being called correctly.
aggordnargs holds the number of direct args to the aggregate.
Hypothetical set functions build over the extension of VARIADIC, and
all of the hypothetical set functions
have variadic 'any' as their parameter types.
Need review:
1) psql /df and /dfa output.
2) Handling of non hypothetical collations.
3) Need of mode(), and the name.
Feedback/Comments?
Regards,
Atri
