Can we handle nulls passed as sketches in sketch functions more gracefully ? Current error messages are confusing and unless we dig deeper into a sql query and intermediate data, its difficult to find root cause of the error. Example: select bqutil.datasketches.theta_sketch_a_not_b(NULL, NULL) returns error: `BindingError: Cannot pass non-string to std::string at UDF$1(BYTES, BYTES, INT64) line 6, columns 25-26` select bqutil.datasketches.theta_sketch_union(NULL, NULL) returns : `BindingError: Cannot pass non-string to std::string at UDF$1(BYTES, BYTES, INT64, INT64) line 12, columns 25-26` Possible handling: - Can nulls be treated as a no-op and we return null ? Or - Return more meaningful error message -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
