Summary: Functions for Random numbers
Key: ASTERIXDB-1688
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ASTERIXDB-1688
Project: Apache AsterixDB
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: AsterixDB, Functions - AQL
Reporter: Michael J. Carey
Priority: Minor
Functions for random numbers would be useful for a variety of purposes. The
issue with them versus other functions is the need for keeping track of and
differentiating seed values between calls to the function between queries. A
first strike at this problem could likely allow for just one seed per function
call, while improvements could possibly allow for multiple calls in the same
query to use different seed values entirely.
