Scott Lewis commented on DERBY-5466:
------------------------------------
I can work on tests for these four functions this week. I've not worked with
the Derby test suite before, however, and so would like a little input...e.g.
Is it obvious where the test classes should be? Is it clear from other tests
how one populates with the appropriate data so that these stats can be
calculated, etc?
Sorry...I don't immediately understand David's comments wrt R and testing these
four functions.
> Add support for SQL Standard statistics functions, such as STDDEV_POP,
> STDDEV_SAMP, VAR_POP, VAR_SAMP

> Affects Versions: 10.8.1.2
> Reporter: Lukas Eder
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: derby_triage10_10

> Any of these RDBMS support the SQL standard statistics functions STDDEV_POP,
> STDDEV_SAMP, VAR_POP, VAR_SAMP:
> - DB2 (only STDDEV, VARIANE)
> - H2
> - HSQLDB
> - Ingres
> - MySQL
> - Oracle
> - Postgres
> - SQL Server (named STDEVP, STDEV, VARP, VAR)
> - Sybase ASE
> - Sybase SQL Anywhere
> These don't:
> - Derby
> - SQLite
> This would be a useful addition for Derby, I think.
> An even larger example list of possible statistics aggregate functions is
> listed in the Postgres documentation:
