I have a need to create some statistical functions in PostgreSQL that will take multiple "column" arguments and return multiple values. A good example would be a least squares fit of a line through a set of (x,y) points. In this case, I would want the function to accept two "columns" of data (i.e. x data and y data) as arguments and return two parameters: the slope and intercept of a line. The slope is given by [sum(x^2)*sum(y) - sum(x)*sum*x*y)] / [M*sum(x^2) -(sum(x))^2] It's not *that* complicated, but it's not that easy to remember either. And if you're already doing a lot of work to tease out the x and y points from various tables, it simplifies your query if you can do a function call. I can't tell from what have read about user defined functions and user defined aggregates whether this kind of function is possible. Bill Eaton
