Hi,
I have a question as to how postgres handles some built-in functions,
for example:
Works Doesn't Work
------ ------------
select now(); select now;
select current_date; select current_date();
It seems that there should be some consistency here in the use of
parenthesis. I don't really know how these things are handled on the
backend, but it seems that parenthesis are the more correct way, or at
least both should be allowed.
Any thoughts?
Byron
