Hi,

I know the LEAST and GREATEST functions are not part
of standard SQL, but they sure were handy where I came
from (Oracle-land).

Has anyone written user-defined functions that do the
same thing?

Are there any plans to add these functions as part of
a future version Postgres?

Thanks,

-Stefan
