Oracle Analytic Function - Oracle/PLSQL REGR_AVGY Function






REGR_AVGY(y, x) returns the average of y after eliminating x and y pairs where either x or y is null.

y is interpreted by the functions as a variable that depends on x.

REGR_AVGY can work with aggregate, windowing, or reporting functions.

Example


CREATE TABLE EMP (EMPNO NUMBER(4) NOT NULL,
                  ENAME VARCHAR2(10),
