DuckDB has a string_agg() function, which allows us to concatenate strings from a group of rows into a single string. This function can be useful when we need to aggregate text data in a meaningful way.
In this article, we’ll explore how the string_agg() function works, along with some simple examples to demonstrate its usage.
DuckDB is an in-process SQL OLAP database management system designed for analytical workloads. Among its various aggregate functions is the product() function, which calculates the product of a set of numeric values.
In this article, we’ll explore how the product() function works with some basic examples.
In DuckDB, bool_and() is an aggregate function that returns true if every input value is true, otherwise it returns false.
Here are some basic examples that demonstrate how it works.
Continue readingIn DuckDB, the arg_max_null() function works in a similar way to the arg_max() function, in that it finds the row with the maximum value in one column and returns the corresponding value from another column at that row.
But where it differs from arg_max() is in the way it deals with NULL values. Also, arg_max_null() only accepts two arguments, whereas arg_max() accepts an optional third argument. Additionally, there aren’t any aliases for arg_max_null() at the time of writing (arg_max() has a couple of aliases).
In this article we’ll look at how arg_max_null() works, and we’ll compare it with arg_max() to see how each function handles NULL values.
DuckDB is an in-process SQL OLAP database management system designed for analytical workloads. Among its many functions is one called last(). This function returns the last value in a column.
Let’s take a look at the last() function in DuckDB.
DuckDB has a max_by() function that finds the row with the maximum value in one column and returns the corresponding value from another column at that row.
Below are some examples that demonstrate how it works.
Continue readingOne of the aggregate functions available in DuckDB is the FIRST() function, which returns the first value from each group in a query.
Let’s take a look at some examples of using the FIRST() function in DuckDB
One of the more commonly used aggregate functions in SQL databases is the sum() function, which provides an easy way to calculate the total sum of a numeric column. DuckDB is no exception.
In this article, we’ll explore how the sum() function works in DuckDB, along with some straightforward examples to demonstrate.
DuckDB, an in-memory analytical SQL database management system, provides a good selection of functions for data manipulation and analysis. One of the these functions is list().
The list() function enables users to group multiple values into a single list, allowing for more advanced data aggregation and operations.
In this article, we’ll explore how the list() function works, along with some simple examples.
DuckDB has a min_by() function that’s similar to the min() function, but with a twist. While the min() function simply returns the minimum value, the min_by() function finds the row with the minimum value in one column and returns the corresponding value from another column at that row.
Here are some examples that demonstrate how it works.
