That produces the same result as my previous example but maybe the join
is more efficient, Thank you for the suggestion.
However, I am still stuck as to how to retrieve HIGHEST. The result set
produced by the above query only contains those tuples whose LOW is
lower than present.LOW.
For HIGHEST, I need to look at the rows between present.day and DAYS2FALL:
something like
SELECT MAX (high) from history WHERE day >= present.day AND day <
(present.day + days2fall)
