Hi all, I'm trying to code a problem where a set of options can be expressed in a data column like "10111011", a bit string.
Each position is atomic and represents a certain setting within the set, thus: "00100000" would return TRUE if OR'd with "10111011", since the 3'rd position matches in both sets. While I could manually retrieve N records and iterate through them in whatever programming language (or possibly a plpgsql function), is there a way I could natively do this in a WHERE clause in my query? Looking through the idocs, I could not immediately find a way around this issue. Any pointers to documentation (or perhaps another way to implement this issue) would be very helpful.
