Subject: Can any_value be used like first_value in an aggregate?
Date: Tue, 25 Jun 2024 11:42:08 -0500
Message-ID: <[email protected]> (raw)

For example, is output of 10 guaranteed in the following:
bruno=> select any_value(x order by x desc) from generate_series(1,10) as x;
 any_value 
-----------
        10
(1 row)

The use case is that I want to return a value of one column that is paired 
with the maximum value of another column in each group when using GROUP BY.

(There aren't going to be any NULLs in the involved columns.)

Thanks.
