Hi all,
I have a table like:
value int,
quarter timestamp
I need an aggregate function that gives back the maximum "value" using
this algorithm:
AVG of the first hour (first 4 quarters) (AVG0)
same as above, but 1 quarter later (AVG1)
....
same as above, but n quarters later (AVGn)
result: the quarter where AVGn was MAX.
Example:
quarter value AVGn
2008-01-01 00:00 10
2008-01-01 00:15 15
2008-01-01 00:30 5
2008-01-01 00:45 20 -> 12.5 ((10+15+5+20)/4)
2008-01-01 01:15 2 -> 21 ((15+5+20+2)/4)
2008-01-01 01:30 30 -> 14.25 ((5+20+2+30)/4))
the result should be ('2008-01-01 00:15', 21)
It would be very easy if the input to the custom aggregate function was
ordered (because I would keep 4 internal counters), but I guess there's
no way of "forcing" the ordering of the input to the function, right?
So I have to cache all the (quarter,value) couples and give back a
result at the end, right?
