+ <para>
+ Window function <function>rpr</function> can be used with row pattern
+ common syntax to perform row pattern recognition in a query. Row pattern
+ common syntax includes two sub clauses. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. Moreover if the expression comprises a column
+ reference, it must be the argument of <function>rpr</function>. An
+ example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns price column in the previous
+ row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in the
+ second line means the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when price column in the current row is greater than the price column in
+ the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". If a
+ sequence of rows found, rpr returns the column at the starting row.
+ Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price, rpr(price) OVER w FROM stock

+ Window function <function>rpr</function> can be used with row pattern
+ common syntax to perform row pattern recognition in a query. Row pattern
+ common syntax includes two sub clauses. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. Moreover if the expression comprises a column
+ reference, it must be the argument of <function>rpr</function>. An
+ example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns price column in the previous
+ row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in the
+ second line means the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when price column in the current row is greater than the price column in
+ the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". If a
+ sequence of rows found, rpr returns the column at the starting row.
+ Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price, rpr(price) OVER w FROM stock

+ Window function <function>rpr</function> can be used with row pattern
+ common syntax to perform row pattern recognition in a query. Row pattern
+ common syntax includes two sub clauses. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. Moreover if the expression comprises a column
+ reference, it must be the argument of <function>rpr</function>. An

+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns price column in the previous
+ row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in the
+ second line means the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when price column in the current row is greater than the price column in

+ price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the

+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be

+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". If a
+ sequence of rows found, rpr returns the column at the starting row.
+ Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>

+ Window function <function>rpr</function> can be used with row pattern
+ common syntax to perform row pattern recognition in a query. Row pattern
+ common syntax includes two sub clauses. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. Moreover if the expression comprises a column
+ reference, it must be the argument of <function>rpr</function>. An
+ example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns price column in the previous
+ row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in the
+ second line means the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when price column in the current row is greater than the price column in
+ the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". If a
+ sequence of rows found, rpr returns the column at the starting row.
+ Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price, rpr(price) OVER w FROM stock

+ PARTITION BY company

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used with row pattern common syntax to
+ perform row pattern recognition in a query. Row pattern common syntax
+ includes two sub clauses. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines definition
+ variables along with an expression. The expression must be a logical
+ expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. Moreover if the expression comprises a column
+ reference, it must be the argument of <function>rpr</function>. An example
+ of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns price column in the previous
+ row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in the
+ second line means the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when price column in the current row is greater than the price column in
+ the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". If a
+ sequence of rows found, rpr returns the column at the starting row.
+ Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price, max(price) OVER w FROM stock

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used with row pattern common syntax to
+ perform row pattern recognition in a query. Row pattern common syntax
+ includes two sub clauses. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines definition
+ variables along with an expression. The expression must be a logical
+ expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. Moreover if the expression comprises a column
+ reference, it must be the argument of <function>rpr</function>. An example
+ of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns price column in the previous
+ row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in the
+ second line means the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when price column in the current row is greater than the price column in
+ the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". If a
+ sequence of rows found, rpr returns the column at the starting row.
+ Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price, max(price) OVER w FROM stock
+ WINDOW w AS (
+ PARTITION BY company
+ ROWS BETWEEN CURRENT ROW AND UNBOUNDED FOLLOWING
+ AFTER MATCH SKIP PAST LAST ROW
+ INITIAL
+ PATTERN (LOWPRICE UP+ DOWN+)
+ DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+);

out each one with a separate <literal>OVER</literal> clause, but this is

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used with row pattern common syntax to

+ includes two sub clauses. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines definition
+ variables along with an expression. The expression must be a logical
+ expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. Moreover if the expression comprises a column

+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns price column in the previous
+ row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in the
+ second line means the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when price column in the current row is greater than the price column in
+ the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". If a
+ sequence of rows found, rpr returns the column at the starting row.
+ Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used with row pattern common syntax to
+ perform row pattern recognition in a query. Row pattern common syntax
+ includes two sub clauses. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines definition
+ variables along with an expression. The expression must be a logical
+ expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. Moreover if the expression comprises a column
+ reference, it must be the argument of <function>rpr</function>. An example
+ of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns price column in the previous
+ row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in the
+ second line means the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when price column in the current row is greater than the price column in
+ the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". If a
+ sequence of rows found, rpr returns the column at the starting row.
+ Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price, max(price) OVER w FROM stock

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used with row pattern common syntax to
+ perform row pattern recognition in a query. Row pattern common syntax
+ includes two sub clauses. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines definition
+ variables along with an expression. The expression must be a logical
+ expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. Moreover if the expression comprises a column
+ reference, it must be the argument of <function>rpr</function>. An example
+ of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns price column in the previous
+ row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in the
+ second line means the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when price column in the current row is greater than the price column in
+ the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". If a
+ sequence of rows found, rpr returns the column at the starting row.
+ Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.

+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price, max(price) OVER w FROM stock

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used with row pattern common syntax to
+ perform row pattern recognition in a query. Row pattern common syntax
+ includes two sub clauses. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines definition
+ variables along with an expression. The expression must be a logical
+ expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. Moreover if the expression comprises a column
+ reference, it must be the argument of <function>rpr</function>. An example
+ of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns price column in the previous
+ row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in the
+ second line means the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when price column in the current row is greater than the price column in
+ the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". If a
+ sequence of rows found, rpr returns the column at the starting row.
+ Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used with row pattern common syntax to
+ perform row pattern recognition in a query. Row pattern common syntax
+ includes two sub clauses. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines definition
+ variables along with an expression. The expression must be a logical
+ expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. Moreover if the expression comprises a column
+ reference, it must be the argument of <function>rpr</function>. An example
+ of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns price column in the previous
+ row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in the
+ second line means the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when price column in the current row is greater than the price column in
+ the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". If a
+ sequence of rows found, rpr returns the column at the starting row.
+ Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price, max(price) OVER w FROM stock

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used with row pattern common syntax to
+ perform row pattern recognition in a query. Row pattern common syntax
+ includes two sub clauses. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines definition
+ variables along with an expression. The expression must be a logical
+ expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. Moreover if the expression comprises a column
+ reference, it must be the argument of <function>rpr</function>. An example
+ of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns price column in the previous
+ row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in the
+ second line means the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when price column in the current row is greater than the price column in
+ the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". If a
+ sequence of rows found, rpr returns the column at the starting row.
+ Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price, max(price) OVER w FROM stock
+ WINDOW w AS (
+ PARTITION BY company
+ ROWS BETWEEN CURRENT ROW AND UNBOUNDED FOLLOWING
+ AFTER MATCH SKIP PAST LAST ROW
+ INITIAL
+ PATTERN (LOWPRICE UP+ DOWN+)
+ DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+);
+</programlisting>

When a query involves multiple window functions, it is possible to write
out each one with a separate <literal>OVER</literal> clause, but this is

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used with row pattern common syntax to
+ perform row pattern recognition in a query. Row pattern common syntax
+ includes two sub clauses. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines definition
+ variables along with an expression. The expression must be a logical
+ expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. Moreover if the expression comprises a column
+ reference, it must be the argument of <function>rpr</function>. An example
+ of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns price column in the previous
+ row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in the
+ second line means the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when price column in the current row is greater than the price column in
+ the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". If a
+ sequence of rows found, rpr returns the column at the starting row.
+ Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price, max(price) OVER w FROM stock
+ WINDOW w AS (
+ PARTITION BY company
+ ROWS BETWEEN CURRENT ROW AND UNBOUNDED FOLLOWING
+ AFTER MATCH SKIP PAST LAST ROW

+ PATTERN (LOWPRICE UP+ DOWN+)
+ DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+);
+</programlisting>

out each one with a separate <literal>OVER</literal> clause, but this is

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used with row pattern common syntax to
+ perform row pattern recognition in a query. Row pattern common syntax
+ includes two sub clauses. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines definition
+ variables along with an expression. The expression must be a logical
+ expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. Moreover if the expression comprises a column
+ reference, it must be the argument of <function>rpr</function>. An example
+ of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns price column in the previous
+ row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in the
+ second line means the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when price column in the current row is greater than the price column in
+ the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". If a
+ sequence of rows found, rpr returns the column at the starting row.
+ Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price, max(price) OVER w FROM stock
+ WINDOW w AS (
+ PARTITION BY company
+ ROWS BETWEEN CURRENT ROW AND UNBOUNDED FOLLOWING
+ AFTER MATCH SKIP PAST LAST ROW

+ PATTERN (LOWPRICE UP+ DOWN+)

+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+);

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used with row pattern common syntax to
+ perform row pattern recognition in a query. Row pattern common syntax
+ includes two sub clauses. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines definition
+ variables along with an expression. The expression must be a logical
+ expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. Moreover if the expression comprises a column
+ reference, it must be the argument of <function>rpr</function>. An example
+ of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns price column in the previous
+ row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in the
+ second line means the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when price column in the current row is greater than the price column in
+ the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". If a
+ sequence of rows found, rpr returns the column at the starting row.
+ Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price, max(price) OVER w FROM stock
+ WINDOW w AS (
+ PARTITION BY company
+ ROWS BETWEEN CURRENT ROW AND UNBOUNDED FOLLOWING
+ AFTER MATCH SKIP PAST LAST ROW

+ PATTERN (LOWPRICE UP+ DOWN+)
+ DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+);

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used with row pattern common syntax to
+ perform row pattern recognition in a query. Row pattern common syntax
+ includes two sub clauses. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines definition
+ variables along with an expression. The expression must be a logical
+ expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. Moreover if the expression comprises a column
+ reference, it must be the argument of <function>rpr</function>. An example
+ of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns price column in the previous
+ row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in the
+ second line means the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when price column in the current row is greater than the price column in
+ the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". If a
+ sequence of rows found, rpr returns the column at the starting row.
+ Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price, max(price) OVER w FROM stock

+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition

+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)

+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the

+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. In the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions and aggregates are NULL. For rows
+ that do not match the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are
+ shown AS NULL too, except count which shows 0. This is because the
+ unmatched rows are in an empty frame. Example of

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. Row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. In the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions and aggregates are NULL. For rows
+ that do not match the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are
+ shown AS NULL too, except count which shows 0. This is because the
+ unmatched rows are in an empty frame. Example of
+ a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,

+ <para>
+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. Row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. In the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions and aggregates are NULL. For rows
+ that do not match the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are
+ shown AS NULL too, except count which shows 0. This is because the
+ unmatched rows are in an empty frame. Example of
+ a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. Row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. In the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions and aggregates are NULL. For rows
+ that do not match the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are
+ shown AS NULL too, except count which shows 0. This is because the
+ unmatched rows are in an empty frame. Example of
+ a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,
+ max(price) OVER w,
+ count(price) OVER w

+ <para>
+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. Row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. In the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions and aggregates are NULL. For rows
+ that do not match the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are
+ shown AS NULL too, except count which shows 0. This is because the
+ unmatched rows are in an empty frame. Example of
+ a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,
+ max(price) OVER w,
+ count(price) OVER w

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. Row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. In the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions and aggregates are NULL. For rows
+ that do not match the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are
+ shown AS NULL too, except count which shows 0. This is because the
+ unmatched rows are in an empty frame. Example of
+ a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,

+ <para>
+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. Row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. In the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions and aggregates are NULL. For rows
+ that do not match the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are
+ shown AS NULL too, except count which shows 0. This is because the
+ unmatched rows are in an empty frame. Example of
+ a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,
+ max(price) OVER w,
+ count(price) OVER w
+FROM stock,
+ WINDOW w AS (

+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. Row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. In the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions and aggregates are NULL. For rows
+ that do not match the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are
+ shown AS NULL too, except count which shows 0. This is because the
+ unmatched rows are in an empty frame. Example of
+ a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,

+ <para>
+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. Row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. In the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions and aggregates are NULL. For rows
+ that do not match the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are
+ shown AS NULL too, except count which shows 0. This is because the
+ unmatched rows are in an empty frame. Example of
+ a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,
+ max(price) OVER w,
+ count(price) OVER w
+FROM stock,
+ WINDOW w AS (
+ PARTITION BY company
+ ORDER BY tdate

+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. Row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. So in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. In the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions and aggregates are NULL. For rows
+ that do not match the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are
+ shown AS NULL too, except count which shows 0. This is because the
+ unmatched rows are in an empty frame. Example of
+ a <literal>SELECT</literal> using the <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,

+ <para>
+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. The row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. Thus in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. On the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions are NULL. Aggregates are NULL or 0
+ (count case) depending on its aggregation definition. For rows that do not
+ match on the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are shown AS
+ NULL too, except count showing 0. This is because the rows do not match,
+ thus they are in an empty frame. Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal>
+ using the <literal>DEFINE</literal> and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause
+ is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,
+ max(price) OVER w,
+ count(price) OVER w

+ WINDOW w AS (

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. The row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. Thus in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. On the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions are NULL. Aggregates are NULL or 0
+ (count case) depending on its aggregation definition. For rows that do not
+ match on the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are shown AS
+ NULL too, except count showing 0. This is because the rows do not match,
+ thus they are in an empty frame. Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal>
+ using the <literal>DEFINE</literal> and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause
+ is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,
+ max(price) OVER w,
+ count(price) OVER w

+ <para>
+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. The row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. Thus in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. On the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions are NULL. Aggregates are NULL or 0
+ (count case) depending on its aggregation definition. For rows that do not
+ match on the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are shown AS
+ NULL too, except count showing 0. This is because the rows do not match,
+ thus they are in an empty frame. Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal>
+ using the <literal>DEFINE</literal> and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause
+ is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,
+ max(price) OVER w,
+ count(price) OVER w

+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the

+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the

+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be

+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look

+ (count case) depending on its aggregation definition. For rows that do not

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. The row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. Thus in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. On the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions are NULL. Aggregates are NULL or 0
+ (count case) depending on its aggregation definition. For rows that do not
+ match on the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are shown AS
+ NULL too, except count showing 0. This is because the rows do not match,
+ thus they are in an empty frame. Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal>
+ using the <literal>DEFINE</literal> and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause
+ is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,
+ max(price) OVER w,

+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column

+ <para>
+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. The row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. Thus in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. On the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions are NULL. Aggregates are NULL or 0
+ (count case) depending on its aggregation definition. For rows that do not
+ match on the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are shown AS
+ NULL too, except count showing 0. This is because the rows do not match,
+ thus they are in an empty frame. Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal>
+ using the <literal>DEFINE</literal> and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause
+ is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,
+ max(price) OVER w,
+ count(price) OVER w

+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)

+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. Thus in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be

+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. On the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions are NULL. Aggregates are NULL or 0
+ (count case) depending on its aggregation definition. For rows that do not
+ match on the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are shown AS
+ NULL too, except count showing 0. This is because the rows do not match,

Agree, it makes sense.
The only question left is, is there any logic in why in some places its
return value of these functions is checked, and in some not? Can I add
checks everywhere?
Best Regards, Stepan Neretin.

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. The row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. Thus in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. On the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions are NULL. Aggregates are NULL or 0
+ (count case) depending on its aggregation definition. For rows that do not
+ match on the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are shown AS
+ NULL too, except count showing 0. This is because the rows do not match,
+ thus they are in an empty frame. Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal>
+ using the <literal>DEFINE</literal> and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause
+ is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,

+ <para>
+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. The row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. Thus in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. On the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions are NULL. Aggregates are NULL or 0
+ (count case) depending on its aggregation definition. For rows that do not
+ match on the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are shown AS
+ NULL too, except count showing 0. This is because the rows do not match,
+ thus they are in an empty frame. Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal>
+ using the <literal>DEFINE</literal> and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause
+ is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,
+ max(price) OVER w,

+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the

+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the

+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be

+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or

+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. The row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. Thus in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. On the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions are NULL. Aggregates are NULL or 0
+ (count case) depending on its aggregation definition. For rows that do not
+ match on the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are shown AS
+ NULL too, except count showing 0. This is because the rows do not match,
+ thus they are in an empty frame. Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal>
+ using the <literal>DEFINE</literal> and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause
+ is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,
+ max(price) OVER w,

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. The row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. Thus in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. On the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions are NULL. Aggregates are NULL or 0
+ (count case) depending on its aggregation definition. For rows that do not
+ match on the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are shown AS
+ NULL too, except count showing 0. This is because the rows do not match,
+ thus they are in an empty frame. Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal>
+ using the <literal>DEFINE</literal> and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause
+ is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,
+ max(price) OVER w,

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. The row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. Thus in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. On the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions are NULL. Aggregates are NULL or 0
+ (count case) depending on its aggregation definition. For rows that do not
+ match on the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are shown AS
+ NULL too, except count showing 0. This is because the rows do not match,
+ thus they are in an empty frame. Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal>
+ using the <literal>DEFINE</literal> and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause
+ is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,
+ max(price) OVER w,
+ count(price) OVER w

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. The row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. Thus in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. On the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions are NULL. Aggregates are NULL or 0
+ (count case) depending on its aggregation definition. For rows that do not
+ match on the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are shown AS
+ NULL too, except count showing 0. This is because the rows do not match,
+ thus they are in an empty frame. Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal>
+ using the <literal>DEFINE</literal> and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause
+ is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,

+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column

+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. The row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. Thus in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. On the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions are NULL. Aggregates are NULL or 0
+ (count case) depending on its aggregation definition. For rows that do not
+ match on the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are shown AS
+ NULL too, except count showing 0. This is because the rows do not match,
+ thus they are in an empty frame. Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal>
+ using the <literal>DEFINE</literal> and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause
+ is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,
+ max(price) OVER w,
+ count(price) OVER w

+ <para>
+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. The row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. Thus in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. On the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions are NULL. Aggregates are NULL or 0
+ (count case) depending on its aggregation definition. For rows that do not
+ match on the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are shown AS
+ NULL too, except count showing 0. This is because the rows do not match,
+ thus they are in an empty frame. Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal>
+ using the <literal>DEFINE</literal> and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause
+ is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,

+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column

+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or

+ <para>
+ Row pattern common syntax can be used to perform row pattern recognition
+ in a query. The row pattern common syntax includes two sub
+ clauses: <literal>DEFINE</literal>
+ and <literal>PATTERN</literal>. <literal>DEFINE</literal> defines
+ definition variables along with an expression. The expression must be a
+ logical expression, which means it must
+ return <literal>TRUE</literal>, <literal>FALSE</literal>
+ or <literal>NULL</literal>. The expression may comprise column references
+ and functions. Window functions, aggregate functions and subqueries are
+ not allowed. An example of <literal>DEFINE</literal> is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+</programlisting>
+
+ Note that <function>PREV</function> returns the price column in the
+ previous row if it's called in a context of row pattern recognition. Thus in
+ the second line the definition variable "UP" is <literal>TRUE</literal>
+ when the price column in the current row is greater than the price column
+ in the previous row. Likewise, "DOWN" is <literal>TRUE</literal> when when
+ the price column in the current row is lower than the price column in the
+ previous row.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Once <literal>DEFINE</literal> exists, <literal>PATTERN</literal> can be
+ used. <literal>PATTERN</literal> defines a sequence of rows that satisfies
+ certain conditions. For example following <literal>PATTERN</literal>
+ defines that a row starts with the condition "LOWPRICE", then one or more
+ rows satisfy "UP" and finally one or more rows satisfy "DOWN". Note that
+ "+" means one or more matches. Also you can use "*", which means zero or
+ more matches. If a sequence of rows which satisfies the PATTERN is found,
+ in the starting row of the sequence of rows all window functions and
+ aggregates are shown in the target list. Note that aggregations only look
+ into the matched rows, rather than whole frame. On the second or
+ subsequent rows all window functions are NULL. Aggregates are NULL or 0
+ (count case) depending on its aggregation definition. For rows that do not
+ match on the PATTERN, all window functions and aggregates are shown AS
+ NULL too, except count showing 0. This is because the rows do not match,
+ thus they are in an empty frame. Example of a <literal>SELECT</literal>
+ using the <literal>DEFINE</literal> and <literal>PATTERN</literal> clause
+ is as follows.
+
+<programlisting>
+SELECT company, tdate, price,
+ first_value(price) OVER w,
+ max(price) OVER w,
+ count(price) OVER w
+FROM stock
+ WINDOW w AS (
+ PARTITION BY company
+ ORDER BY tdate
+ ROWS BETWEEN CURRENT ROW AND UNBOUNDED FOLLOWING
+ AFTER MATCH SKIP PAST LAST ROW
+ INITIAL
+ PATTERN (LOWPRICE UP+ DOWN+)
+ DEFINE
+ LOWPRICE AS price <= 100,
+ UP AS price > PREV(price),
+ DOWN AS price < PREV(price)
+);
+</programlisting>
