nTile

nTile([<value1> : integer]) => integer

The NTile function divides the rows for each window partition into n buckets ranging from 1 to at most n. Bucket values will differ by at most 1. If the number of rows in the partition doesn't divide evenly into the number of buckets, then the remainder values are distributed one per bucket, starting with the first bucket. The NTile function is useful for the calculation of tertiles, quartiles, deciles, and other common summary statistics. The function calculates two variables during initialization: The size of a regular bucket will have one extra row added to it. Both variables are based on the size of the current partition. During the calculation process the function keeps track of the current row number, the current bucket number, and the row number at which the bucket will change (bucketThreshold). When the current row number reaches bucket threshold, the bucket value is increased by one and the threshold is increased by the bucket size (plus one extra if the current bucket is padded).

  • translate('(gunchus)', '()', '[') -> '[gunchus'

trim

trim(<string to trim> : string, [<trim characters> : string]) => string

Trims a string of leading and trailing characters. If second parameter is unspecified, it trims whitespace. Else it trims any character specified in the second parameter.

  • trim(' dumbo ') -> 'dumbo'
  • trim('!--!du!mbo!', '-!') -> 'dumbo'

true

true() => boolean

Always returns a true value. Use the function syntax(true()) if there's a column named 'true'.

  • (10 + 20 == 30) -> true
  • (10 + 20 == 30) -> true()

typeMatch

typeMatch(<type> : string, <base type> : string) => boolean

Matches the type of the column. Can only be used in pattern expressions. Number matches short, integer, long, double, float or decimal, integral matches short, integer, long, fractional matches double, float, decimal and datetime matches date or timestamp type.

  • typeMatch(type, 'number')
  • typeMatch('date', 'datetime')

U

unescape

unescape(<string_to_escape> : string, <format> : string) => string

Unescapes a string according to a format. Literal values for acceptable format are 'json', 'xml', 'ecmascript', 'html', 'java'.

  • unescape('{\\\\\"value\\\\\": 10}', 'json')
  • '{\\\"value\\\": 10}'

unfold

unfold (<value1>: array) => any

Unfolds an array into a set of rows and repeats the values for the remaining columns in every row.

  • unfold(addresses) => any
  • unfold( @(name = salesPerson, sales = salesAmount) ) => any

unhex

unhex(<value1>: string) => binary

Unhexes a binary value from its string representation. This can be used with sha2, md5 to convert from string to binary representation

  • unhex('1fadbe') -> toBinary([toByte(0x1f), toByte(0xad), toByte(0xbe)])
  • unhex(md5(5, 'gunchus', 8.2, 'bojjus', true, toDate('2010-4-4'))) -> toBinary([toByte(0x4c),toByte(0xe8),toByte(0xa8),toByte(0x80),toByte(0xbd),toByte(0x62),toByte(0x1a),toByte(0x1f),toByte(0xfa),toByte(0xd0),toByte(0xbc),toByte(0xa9),toByte(0x05),toByte(0xe1),toByte(0xbc),toByte(0x5a)])

union

union(<value1>: array, <value2> : array) => array

Returns a union set of distinct items from 2 arrays.

  • union([10, 20, 30], [20, 40]) => [10, 20, 30, 40]

upper

upper(<value1> : string) => string

Uppercases a string.

  • upper('bojjus') -> 'BOJJUS'

uuid

uuid() => string

Returns the generated UUID.

  • uuid()

V

variance

variance(<value1> : number) => double

Gets the variance of a column.

  • variance(sales)

varianceIf

varianceIf(<value1> : boolean, <value2> : number) => double

Based on a criteria, gets the variance of a column.

  • varianceIf(region == 'West', sales)

variancePopulation

variancePopulation(<value1> : number) => double

Gets the population variance of a column.

  • variancePopulation(sales)

variancePopulationIf

variancePopulationIf(<value1> : boolean, <value2> : number) => double

Based on a criteria, gets the population variance of a column.

  • variancePopulationIf(region == 'West', sales)

varianceSample

varianceSample(<value1> : number) => double

Gets the unbiased variance of a column.

  • varianceSample(sales)

varianceSampleIf

varianceSampleIf(<value1> : boolean, <value2> : number) => double

Based on a criteria, gets the unbiased variance of a column.

  • varianceSampleIf(region == 'West', sales)

W

weekOfYear

weekOfYear(<value1> : datetime) => integer

Gets the week of the year given a date.

  • weekOfYear(toDate('2008-02-20')) -> 8

weeks

weeks(<value1> : integer) => long

Duration in milliseconds for number of weeks.

  • weeks(2) -> 1209600000L

X

xor

xor(<value1> : boolean, <value2> : boolean) => boolean

Logical XOR operator. Same as ^ operator.

  • xor(true, false) -> true
  • xor(true, true) -> false
  • true ^ false -> true

Y
