What are COLUMN functions in DB2? Explain with the help of an example
The DB2 COLUMN functions are also known as aggregate functions. These functions take the values from a particular column of multiple rows and return a single value.
Below is the list of some most commonly used COLUMN functions.
| COLUMN FUNCTION | DESCRIPTION |
| SUM | Finds the sum of column values |
| COUNT | Count the number of column values |
| AVG | Finds the average of column values |
| MAX | Finds the maximum value in the column |
| MIN | Finds the minimum value in the column |
The COLUMN function can only be used in the SELECT query. For example, if we have to find the average of all the ORDER_TOTAL for the orders placed on 15-08-2020 from the ORDERS table, then we can use the below query.
Example
SELECT AVG(ORDER_TOTAL) FROM ORDERS WHERE ORDER_DATE = ‘15-08-2020’
