Neil Conway	7815ca7bef	Rewrite much of psql's \connect code, for the sake of code clarity and ... to fix regressions introduced in the recent patch adding additional \connect options. This is based on work by Volkan YAZICI, although this version of the patch doesn't bear much resemblance to Volkan's version. \connect takes 4 optional arguments: database name, user name, host name, and port number. If any of those parameters are omitted or specified as "-", the value of that parameter from the previous connection is used instead; if there is no previous connection, the libpq default is used. Note that this behavior makes it impossible to reuse the libpq defaults without quitting psql and restarting it; I don't really see the use case for needing to do that.	20 years ago

Bruce Momjian	f3d99d160d	Add CVS tag lines to files that were lacking them.	20 years ago
Neil Conway	0ebf1cc834	Implement 4 new aggregate functions from SQL2003. Specifically: var_pop(), ... var_samp(), stddev_pop(), and stddev_samp(). var_samp() and stddev_samp() are just renamings of the historical Postgres aggregates variance() and stddev() -- the latter names have been kept for backward compatibility. This patch includes updates for the documentation and regression tests. The catversion has been bumped. NB: SQL2003 requires that DISTINCT not be specified for any of these aggregates. Per discussion on -patches, I have NOT implemented this restriction: if the user asks for stddev(DISTINCT x), presumably they know what they are doing.	20 years ago

Bruce Momjian	d69b163247	Attached is the new patch. To summarize: ... - new function justify_interval(interval) - modified function justify_hours(interval) - modified function justify_days(interval) These functions are defined to meet the requirements as discussed in this thread. Specifically: - justify_hours makes certain the sign bit on the hours matches the sign bit on the days. It only checks the sign bit on the days, and not the months, when determining if the hours should be positive or negative. After the call, -24 < hours < 24. - justify_days makes certain the sign bit on the days matches the sign bit on the months. It's behavior does not depend on the hours, nor does it modify the hours. After the call, -30 < days < 30. - justify_interval makes sure the sign bits on all three fields months, days, and hours are all the same. After the call, -24 < hours < 24 AND -30 < days < 30.

Bruce Momjian	7d40942a27	in the docs, the function "ascii(text)" is described as ... returning "ASCII code of the first character of the argument" (see http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/interactive/functions-string.html, Table 9-6. "Other String Functions"). Presumably this should read "ASCII code of the first byte of the argument", which is what is returned when the argument is a multi-byte character (although then with UTF-8 at least that might not necessarily be an ASCII code).
