Dear All,

I have a problem with this case :

I have 10 candy for 7 child (A, B, C, D, E, F, G).

Table X :
code   value
 -------  -------- 
 A        0        
 B        0        
 C        0        
 D        0        
 E        0        
 F        0        
 G       0        

And I want divide it with this algorithm : 
    A = 10 / 7 = 1
    B = (10-1) / (7-1) = 9 / 6 = 1
    C = (10-2) / (7-2) = 8 / 5 = 1
    D = (10-3) / (7-3) = 7 / 4 = 1
    E = (10-4) / (7-4) = 6 / 3 = 2
    F = (10-6) / (7-5) = 4 / 2 = 2
    G = (10-8) / (7-6) = 2 / 2 = 2

In my first solution i use loop - for each record in my function.
But it is too slow in a lot of data.
Did postgresql have a function for my case?

Thanks All.
