three functions which exercise the tablefunc API.
show_all_settings()
- returns the same information as SHOW ALL, but as a query result
normal_rand(int numvals, float8 mean, float8 stddev, int seed)
- returns a set of normally distributed float8 values
- This routine implements Algorithm P (Polar method for normal
deviates) from Knuth's _The_Art_of_Computer_Programming_, Volume 2,
3rd ed., pages 122-126. Knuth cites his source as "The polar
method", G. E. P. Box, M. E. Muller, and G. Marsaglia,
_Annals_Math,_Stat._ 29 (1958), 610-611.
crosstabN(text sql)
- returns a set of row_name plus N category value columns
- crosstab2(), crosstab3(), and crosstab4() are defined for you,
but you can create additional crosstab functions per directions
in the README.
