Array Functions
Array functions manipulate arrays or return information about arrays.
CARDINALITY
cardinality(array)
The number of members in the array. The null value will return 0.
ARRAY_POSITION
array_position(array, value)
Return a 0-based index of the first occurrence of val if it is found within an array. If val does not exist within the array, it returns -1.
ELEMENT_AT
element_at(array, index)
Returns element of the array at index val. If val < 0, this function accesses elements from the last to the first.
ARRAY_CONTAINS
array_contains(array, value)
Returns true if array contains the element.
ARRAY_CREATE
array_create(value1, ......)
Construct an array from literals.
ARRAY_REMOVE
array_remove(array, value)
Returns the array with all occurrences of value removed.
ARRAY_LAST_POSITION
array_last_position(array, val)
Return a 0-based index of the last occurrence of val if it is found within the array. If val does not exist within the array, it returns -1.
ARRAY_CONTAINS_ANY
array_contains_any(array1, array2)
Returns true if array1 and array2 have any elements in common.
ARRAY_INTERSECT
array_intersect(array1, array2)
Returns an intersection of the two arrays, with all duplicates removed.
ARRAY_UNION
array_union(array1, array2)
Returns a union of the two arrays, with all duplicates removed.
ARRAY_MAX
array_max(array)
Returns an element which is greater than or equal to all other elements of the array. The null element will be ignored.
ARRAY_MIN
array_min(array)
Returns an element which is less than or equal to all other elements of the array. The null element will be ignored.
ARRAY_EXCEPT
array_except(array1, array2)
Returns an array of elements that are in array1 but not in array2, without duplicates.
REPEAT
repeat(string, count)
Constructs an array of val repeated count times.
SEQUENCE
sequence(start, stop, step)
Returns an array of integers from start to stop, incrementing by step.
ARRAY_CARDINALITY
array_cardinality(array)
Return the number of elements in the array. The null value will be ignored.
ARRAY_FLATTEN
array_flatten(array)
Return a flattened array, i.e., expand the array elements in the array.
For example, if the input is [[1, 4], [2, 3]], then the output is [1, 4, 2, 3].
ARRAY_DISTINCT
array_distinct(array)
Return a distinct array, i.e., remove the duplicate elements in the array.
ARRAY_MAP
array_map(function_name, array)
Return a new array by applying a function to each element of the array.
ARRAY_JOIN
array_join(array, delimiter, null_replacement)
Return a string that concatenates all elements of the array and uses the delimiter and an optional string to replace null values.
For example, if the input is [1, 2, 3], delimiter is set to comma, then the output is "1,2,3".
ARRAY_SHUFFLE
array_shuffle(array)
Return a shuffled array, i.e., randomly shuffle the elements in the array.
ARRAY_CONCAT
array_concat(array1, array2, ...)
Returns the concatenation of the input arrays, this function does not modify the existing arrays, but returns new one.
ARRAY_SORT
array_sort(array)
Returns a sorted copy of the input array.
array_sort([3, 2, "b", "a"])
Result:
[2, 3, "a", "b"]
