Commented by: Volker Rehn (vr2_s18) Adriano has asked what to implement first since Philippe's list is fairly big. Please see this link on how it is done in Postgres http://umitanuki.net/pgsql/wfv03/design.html and this one for a good introduction and summary on this complex topic this ticket deserves a higher priority. Even if only partially implemented those features would significantly enhance the toolkit of OLAP users of Firebird. |
|
Commented by: @pmakowski In my opinion, the priority is to set Window functions (RANK(), ROW_NUMBER()) |
|
Commented by: @asfernandes My intention is to implement early a way for current GROUP BY functions work with OVER ([PARTITION BY ...]) clause. Later, some internal refactoring would be desired to make easy creation of new functions. Functions as RANK and ROW_NUMBER also requires ORDER BY clause, so they probably will not be the first ones. |

Commented by: @asfernandes I'm resolving this because there is no immediate plan to implement more subtasks. |

Commented by: @pmakowski Adriano, did you implemented : percent_rank() relative rank of the current row: (rank - 1) / (total rows - 1) cume_dist() relative rank of the current row: (number of rows preceding or peer with current row) / (total rows) ntile(num_buckets integer) integer ranging from 1 to the argument value, dividing the partition as equally as possible lag(value any [, offset integer [, default any ]]) returns value evaluated at the row that is offset rows before the current row within the partition; if there is no such row, instead return default. Both offset and default are evaluated with respect to the current row. If omitted, offset defaults to 1 and default to null lead(value any [, offset integer [, default any ]]) returns value evaluated at the row that is offset rows after the current row within the partition; if there is no such row, instead return default. Both offset and default are evaluated with respect to the current row. If omitted, offset defaults to 1 and default to null first_value(value any) return value evaluated at the row that is the first row of the window frame last_value(value any) returns value evaluated at the row that is the last row of the window frame nth_value(value any, nth integer) returns value evaluated at the row that is the nth row of the window frame (counting from 1); null if no such row for ref : http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/functions-window.html#FUNCTIONS-WINDOW-TABLE |

Commented by: @asfernandes Philippe, of these only LAG and LEAD are already implemented. |

Commented by: @pmakowski seems that : are not implemeted ? |
|
Commented by: @dyemanov Philippe, there was no indication that the whole specification would be implemented at once :-) I recall a kind of agreement with Adriano that framing could be postponed. |
|
Commented by: @pmakowski framing could be postponed, but it have to be indicated somewhere or another ticket or sub-ticket have to be set for that, just to be clear about what we have or not |
|
Commented by: @pmakowski Standard say : so, according to the standard, you can write : or you can use an explicit WINDOW clause select emp_no, dept_no, salary, avg(salary) over w but now it returns : advantage of explicit WINDOW clause : window has a name, which can be used by multiple window table function |

Commented by: @sim1984 Please add a window frame clause to Firebird 4. |

After CTE, it would be nice to have ANSI SQL Window Functions
SQL2003 allows for a window_clause in aggregate function calls, the addition of which makes those functions into window functions.
SQL2003 specifies the following syntax for window functions:
FUNCTION_NAME(expr) OVER {window_name|(window_specification)}
window_specification ::= [window_name][partitioning][ordering][framing]
partitioning ::= PARTITION BY value [, value...] [COLLATE collation_name]
ordering ::= ORDER [SIBLINGS] BY rule [, rule...]
rule ::= {value|position|alias} [ASC|DESC] [NULLS {FIRST|LAST}]
framing ::= {ROWS|RANGE} {start|between} [exclusion]
start ::= {UNBOUNDED PRECEDING|unsigned-integer PRECEDING|CURRENT ROW}
between ::= BETWEEN bound AND bound
bound ::= {start|UNBOUNDED FOLLOWING|unsigned-integer FOLLOWING}
exclusion ::= {EXCLUDE CURRENT ROW|EXCLUDE GROUP
|EXCLUDE TIES|EXCLUDE NO OTHERS}
List of Window Functions
CUME_DIST( ) OVER {window_name|(window_specification)} : Calculates the cumulative distribution, or relative rank, of the current row to other rows in the same partition
DENSE_RANK( ) OVER {window_name|(window_specification)} : Assigns a rank to each row in a partition, which should be ordered in some manner. The rank for a given row is computed by counting the number of rows preceding the row in question, and then adding 1 to the result. Rows with duplicate ORDER BY values will rank the same. Unlike the case with RANK( ), gaps in rank numbers will not result from two rows sharing the same rank.
RANK( ) OVER {window_name|(window_specification)} : Assigns a rank to each row in a partition, which should be ordered in some manner. The rank for a given row is computed by counting the number of rows preceding the row in question, and then adding 1 to the result. Rows with duplicate ORDER BY values will rank the same, and will lead to subsequent gaps in rank numbers.
PERCENT_RANK( ) OVER ({window_name|(window_specification)} : Computes the relative rank of a row by dividing that row's rank less 1 by the number of rows in the partition, also less 1
ROW_NUMBER( ) OVER ({window_name|(window_specification)} : Assigns a unique number to each row in a partition.
