I was not aware of Postgres arrays or that it is part of the SQL:1999 standard: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.0/interactive/arrays.html Or, for that matter, that postgres supports Set Returning Functions that can be queried in the FROM clause: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.0/static/functions-srf.html select * from generate_series(2,4); generate_series ----------------- 2 3 4 I suppose that generate_series() could be implemented as an iterator. Useful stuff. Thanks for the tip. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo! Mobile.
