----------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Thanks for the info. The following sections are ready for review:
The [CONCAT function|http://drill.apache.org/docs/string-manipulation/#concat]
on the String Manipulation page:
http://drill.apache.org/docs/string-manipulation, which points to the string
concatenation operator section:
http://drill.apache.org/docs/operators/#string-concatenate-operator

> Key: DRILL-2354
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-2354
> Project: Apache Drill
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation
> Reporter: Sean Hsuan-Yi Chu
> Assignee: Kristine Hahn
>
> In Drill, we have two ways to concatenate Strings:
> 1. Concat Function: concat(c1, c2, c3, ...)
> 2. Concat Operator: c1 || c2 || c3 || ...
> They are doing same thing except for dealing with NULL:
> 1. For concat function, NULL is treated as empty string
> 2. For concat operator: if any input is NULL, output NULL (no matter what
> other columns are)
> These are subtle difference and would be better to be documented.
