Maryann Xue commented on PHOENIX-953:
-------------------------------------

So whatever column that appears in UNNEST (e.g. scores) should come from a 
table that has been previously referenced, otherwise you just specify a 
sub-query as the UNNEST input, am I right? My point is we don't have the 
ability to resolve dependence on a previously declared/referenced table yet in 
Phoenix yet, so it'd be easier to tackle the sub-query case first.

> 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.
