Unpacking array is more SQL construct for me, than SRF function. With
function you cannot conntrol behave of unpacking. With SQL construct I
can
SELECT DISTINCT a(i) FROM generate_series ... remove duplicities
SELECT a(i) FROM generate_series ORDER BY .. sorted output
etc
But I can
SELECT * FROM generate_series(ARRAY[1,3,4,5,7,10]);
else
FUNCTION generate_series(anyarray) returns setof any
