--------------------------------------------------------------
For reference, here is the documentation of this function from the Postgres
documentation:
??citation??
array_to_string ( array anyarray, delimiter text [, null_string text ] ) → text
Converts each array element to its text representation, and concatenates those
separated by the delimiter string. If null_string is given and is not NULL,
then NULL array entries are represented by that string; otherwise, they are
omitted.

> Key: CALCITE-5884
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-5884
> Project: Calcite
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: core
> Affects Versions: 1.35.0
> Reporter: Mihai Budiu
> Priority: Trivial
>
> This is the current definition of the function ARRAY_TO_STRING in
> SqlLibraryOperators:
> {code:java}
> /** The "ARRAY_TO_STRING(array, delimiter [, nullText ])" function. */
> @LibraryOperator(libraries = {BIG_QUERY})
> public static final SqlFunction ARRAY_TO_STRING =
> SqlBasicFunction.create(SqlKind.ARRAY_TO_STRING,
> ReturnTypes.VARCHAR_NULLABLE,
> OperandTypes.STRING_ARRAY_CHARACTER_OPTIONAL_CHARACTER);
> {code}
> So the result is nullable if any of the arguments is nullable. However, the
> nullability of the last argument does not influence the result nullabillity:
> a NULL value for the third optional argument will not cause a NULL value to
> be output.
