Window Functions

Updated on 2024-08-20 GMT+08:00

Window Functions

This statement is used together with the window function. The OVER clause is used for grouping data and sorting the elements in a group. Window functions are used for generating sequence numbers for the values in the group.

NOTE:

order by in a window function must be followed by a column name. If it is followed by a number, the number is processed as a constant value and the target column is not ranked.

If a parent query contains filter criteria of a window function in a subquery, the filter criteria in the parent query can be pushed down to the subquery.

CAUTION:
  1. Only the <, <=, and = filter criteria of window functions in parent queries can be pushed down to subqueries.
  2. The upper limit can be a constant, constant expression, parameter, non-VOLATILE function, or non-correlated sublink.
  3. Only the ROW_NUMBER(), RANK(), and DENSE_RANK() window functions are supported.

Example:

 1

    gaussdb=# DROP TABLE ntile_t1;
    
  • LAG

    Description: The LAG function is used for generating lag values for the corresponding values in each group. That is, the value of the row obtained by moving forward the row corresponding to the current value by offset (integer) is the sequence number. If the row does not exist after the moving, the result value is the default value. If not specified, offset defaults to 1 and default to NULL. The type of the default value must be the same as that of the value value.

    Syntax:

    LAG(value any [, offset integer [, default any ]])
    LAG(value any ignore|respect nulls [, offset integer [, default any ]])
    LAG(value any [, offset integer [, default any ]]) ignore|respect nulls

    ignore|respect nulls determines whether NULL is included in the forward offset value. If not specified, the default value respect nulls is used. If ignore nulls is specified and value is set to NULL, NULL is not included in the forward offset value. If ignore nulls is specified, the function performance deteriorates.

    Return type: same as the parameter type

    Example 1: Disable ignore nulls and set offset to 3 and default to NULL.

    -- Create a table and insert data into the table.
    gaussdb=# CREATE TABLE ta1 (hire_date date, last_name varchar(20), department_id int);

  • LEAD

    Description: The LEAD function is used for generating leading values for the corresponding values in each group. That is, the value of the row obtained by moving backward the row corresponding to the current value by offset (integer) is the sequence number. If the row after the moving exceeds the total number of rows for the current group, the result value is the default value. If omitted, offset defaults to 1 and default to NULL. The type of the default value must be the same as that of the value value.

    Syntax:

    LEAD(value any [, offset integer [, default any ]])
    LEAD(value any ignore|respect nulls [, offset integer [, default any ]])
    LEAD(value any [, offset integer [, default any ]]) ignore|respect nulls

    ignore|respect nulls determines whether NULL is included in the backward offset value. If not specified, the default value respect nulls is used. If ignore nulls is specified and value is set to NULL, NULL is not included in the backward offset value. If ignore nulls is specified, the function performance deteriorates.

    Return type: same as the parameter type

    Example 1: Disable ignore nulls, set offset to 2, and do not specify default.

  • DELTA

    Description: Returns the difference between the current row and the previous row.

    Parameter: numeric

    Return type: numeric

  • RATIO_TO_REPORT(column_name)

    Description: Calculates the ratio of the value in a column to the total value in the group to which the column belongs.

    Parameter: numeric type, or any type that can be implicitly converted to the numeric type.

    Return type: For input parameter types float4 and float8, the return type is of the same value type. For other input parameter types, the return type is numeric.

    NOTE:

    When RATIO_TO_REPORT(column_name) is used together with OVER(), the input parameters of OVER() support only PARTITION BY and NULL.
