Julian Hyde commented on PHOENIX-953:
-------------------------------------
There is no need for a version of UNNEST that takes more than 1 argument. You
should write
{code}SELECT score, name
FROM UNNEST(scores) AS t (score),
UNNEST(names) AS t2 (name){code} and you will get the cartesian product.
> Support UNNEST for ARRAY

> The UNNEST built-in function converts an array into a set of rows. This is
> more than a built-in function, so should be considered an advanced project.
> For an example, see the following Postgres documentation:
> http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/static/functions-array.html
> http://www.anicehumble.com/2011/07/postgresql-unnest-function-do-many.html
> http://tech.valgog.com/2010/05/merging-and-manipulating-arrays-in.html
> So the UNNEST is a way of converting an array to a flattened "table" which
> can then be filtered on, ordered, grouped, etc.
