HLL Functions
There are three HLL modes: explicit, sparse, and full. When the data size is small, the explicit mode is used. In this mode, distinct values are calculated without errors. As the number of distinct values increases, the HLL mode is switched to the sparse and full modes in sequence. The two modes have no difference in the calculation result, but vary in the calculation efficiency of HLL functions and the storage space of HLL objects. The following functions can be used to view some HLL parameters:
- hll_print(hll)
Description: Prints some debugging parameters of an HLL.
Example:
1 2 3 4 5
gaussdb=# SELECT hll_print(hll_empty()); hll_print ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- type=1(HLL_EMPTY), log2m=14, log2explicit=10, log2sparse=12, duplicatecheck=0 (1 row)
- hll_type(hll)
Description: Checks the type of the current HLL. The return values are described as follows: 0 indicates HLL_UNINIT, an HLL object that is not initialized. 1 indicates HLL_EMPTY, an empty HLL object. 2 indicates HLL_EXPLICIT, an HLL object in explicit mode. 3 indicates HLL_SPARSE, an HLL object in sparse mode. 4 indicates HLL_FULL, an HLL object in full mode. 5 indicates HLL_UNDEFINED, an invalid HLL object.
Example:
1 2 3 4 5
gaussdb=# SELECT hll_type(hll_empty()); hll_type ---------- 1 (1 row)
- hll_log2m(hll)
Description: Checks the value of log2m in the current HLL data structure. log2m is the logarithm of the number of buckets. This value affects the error rate of calculating distinct values by HLL. The error rate = ±1.04/√(2^log2m). When the value of log2m is explicitly set to a value ranging from 10 to 16, HLL sets the number of buckets to 2log2m. When the value of log2explicit is explicitly set to –1, the built-in default value is used.
Example:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17
gaussdb=# SELECT hll_log2m(hll_empty()); hll_log2m ----------- 14 (1 row) gaussdb=# SELECT hll_log2m(hll_empty(10)); hll_log2m ----------- 10 (1 row) gaussdb=# SELECT hll_log2m(hll_empty(-1)); hll_log2m ----------- 14 (1 row)
- hll_log2explicit(hll)
Description: Queries the value of log2explicit in the current HLL data structure. Generally, the HLL changes from the explicit mode to the sparse mode and then to the full mode. This process is called the promotion hierarchy policy. You can change the value of log2explicit to change the policy. For example, if the value of log2explicit is 0, the HLL will skip the explicit mode and directly enter the sparse mode. When the value of log2explicit is explicitly set to a value ranging from 1 to 12, the HLL will switch to the sparse mode when the length of the data segment exceeds 2log2explicit. When the value of log2explicit is explicitly set to –1, the built-in default value is used.
Example:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17
gaussdb=# SELECT hll_log2explicit(hll_empty()); hll_log2explicit ------------------ 10 (1 row) gaussdb=# SELECT hll_log2explicit(hll_empty(12, 8)); hll_log2explicit ------------------ 8 (1 row) gaussdb=# SELECT hll_log2explicit(hll_empty(12, -1)); hll_log2explicit ------------------ 10 (1 row)
- hll_log2sparse(hll)
Description: Queries the value of log2sparse in the current HLL data structure. Generally, the HLL changes from the explicit mode to the sparse mode and then to the full mode. This process is called the promotion hierarchy policy. You can adjust the value of log2sparse to change the policy. For example, if the value of log2sparse is 0, the system skips the sparse mode and directly enters the full mode. If the value of log2sparse is explicitly set to a value ranging from 1 to 14, the HLL will switch to the full mode when the length of the data segment exceeds 2log2sparse. When the value of log2sparse is explicitly set to –1, the built-in default value is used.
Example:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17
gaussdb=# SELECT hll_log2sparse(hll_empty()); hll_log2sparse ---------------- 12 (1 row) gaussdb=# SELECT hll_log2sparse(hll_empty(12, 8, 10)); hll_log2sparse ---------------- 10 (1 row) gaussdb=# SELECT hll_log2sparse(hll_empty(12, 8, -1)); hll_log2sparse ---------------- 12 (1 row)
- hll_duplicatecheck(hll)
Description: Specifies whether duplicate check is enabled. 0: disable; 1: enable. This function is disabled by default. If there are many duplicate values, you can enable this function to improve efficiency. When the value of duplicatecheck is explicitly set to –1, the built-in default value is used.
Example:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17
gaussdb=# SELECT hll_duplicatecheck(hll_empty()); hll_duplicatecheck -------------------- 0 (1 row) gaussdb=# SELECT hll_duplicatecheck(hll_empty(12, 8, 10, 1)); hll_duplicatecheck -------------------- 1 (1 row) gaussdb=# SELECT hll_duplicatecheck(hll_empty(12, 8, 10, -1)); hll_duplicatecheck -------------------- 0 (1 row)

- hll_empty(int32 log2m, int32 log2explicit)
Description: Creates an empty HLL and sets the log2m and log2explicit parameters in sequence. The value of log2explicit ranges from 0 to 12. The value 0 indicates that the explicit mode is skipped.

To perform the UNION operation on data in multiple HLLs, ensure that the HLLs have the same precision. Otherwise, UNION cannot be performed. This constraint also applies to the hll_union(hll, hll) function.
Obsolete Functions
Some old HLL functions are discarded due to version upgrade. You can replace them with similar functions.
- hll_schema_version(hll)
Description: Checks the schema version in the current HLL. In earlier versions, the schema version is fixed at 1, which is used to verify the header of the HLL field. After refactoring, the HLL field is added to the header for verification. The schema version is no longer used.
- hll_regwidth(hll)
Description: Queries the bucket size in the HLL data structure. In earlier versions, the value of regwidth ranges from 1 to 5, which has a large error and limits the upper limit of the cardinality estimation. After refactoring, the value of regwidth is fixed at 6 and the variable is not used.
- hll_expthresh(hll)
Description: Obtains the value of expthresh in the current HLL. The hll_log2explicit(hll) function is used to replace similar functions.
- hll_sparseon(hll)
Description: Specifies whether the sparse mode is enabled. Use hll_log2sparse(hll) to replace similar functions. The value 0 indicates that the sparse mode is disabled.

Operators
- =
Description: Compares the values of the HLL or hll_hashval type to check whether they are the same.
Return type: Boolean
Example:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
--hll gaussdb=# SELECT (hll_empty() || hll_hash_integer(1)) = (hll_empty() || hll_hash_integer(1)); column ---------- t (1 row) --hll_hashval gaussdb=# SELECT hll_hash_integer(1) = hll_hash_integer(1); ?column? ---------- t (1 row)
- <> or !=
Description: Compares the values of the HLL or hll_hashval type to check whether they are different.
Return type: Boolean
Example:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
--hll gaussdb=# SELECT (hll_empty() || hll_hash_integer(1)) <> (hll_empty() || hll_hash_integer(2)); ?column? ---------- t (1 row) --hll_hashval gaussdb=# SELECT hll_hash_integer(1) <> hll_hash_integer(2); ?column? ---------- t (1 row)
- ||
Description: Represents the hll_add, hll_union, and hll_add_rev functions.
Return type: HLL
Example:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
--hll_add gaussdb=# SELECT hll_empty() || hll_hash_integer(1); ?column? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- \x484c4c08000002002b0900000000000000f03f3e2921ff133fbaed3e2921ff133fbaed00 (1 row) --hll_add_rev gaussdb=# SELECT hll_hash_integer(1) || hll_empty(); ?column? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- \x484c4c08000002002b0900000000000000f03f3e2921ff133fbaed3e2921ff133fbaed00 (1 row) --hll_union gaussdb=# SELECT (hll_empty() || hll_hash_integer(1)) || (hll_empty() || hll_hash_integer(2)); ?column? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- \x484c4c10002000002b090000000000000000400000000000000000b3ccc49320cca1ae3e2921ff133fbaed00 (1 row)
- #
Description: Calculates the number of distinct values of an HLL. It works the same as the hll_cardinality function.
Return type: int
Example:
1 2 3 4 5
gaussdb=# SELECT #(hll_empty() || hll_hash_integer(1)); ?column? ---------- 1 (1 row)
