--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sorry [~julianhyde], I thought you had not started working on this (I did not 
see the status change in the ticket), so I was going to take care of it. Then 
maybe it is easier that you finish it, and I continue working on CALCITE-461? 
Your call.

About your questions:
- If an argument to {{GROUPING_ID}} appears multiple times (I don't know why 
somebody would want that), I guess there are two approaches: \(i) throw an 
error, or (ii) allow it (and maybe throw a warning?). I support the second 
approach, so the user should have freedom to use it his own way.
- I think for the {{GROUPING_ID}} function, we should only take into account 
its parameters and their order. Thus, as you stated:
{noformat}
GROUPING_ID(e2, e1, e0)
== GROUPING(e2) * 4 
+ GROUPING(e1) * 2
+ GROUPING(e0)
{noformat}
independently of whether we have grouped by e.g. {{e2, e1, e0}} or {{e1, e2, 
e0}}.

I think we already handle the case where an argument to {{GROUPING_ID}} is not 
being grouped.
{quote}
What do you mean? Do you throw an error, or...?

>
> Implement GROUP_ID and GROUPING_ID(expr [, expr]...) functions, as they are 
> defined in Oracle.
> We already have, as of CALCITE-370, the GROUPING(expr) function. Now define 
> GROUPING_ID:
> GROUPING_ID(e2, e1, e0)
>  == GROUPING(e2) * 4 
>   + GROUPING(e1) * 2
>   + GROUPING(e0)
> and similarly for different numbers of arguments.
> GROUP_ID() is equivalent to GROUPING_ID(x, y, z), where x, y, z are the 
> expressions being grouped.
