Function | Description |
---|---|
substring(column,beginInclusive) |
Get column.substring(beginInclusive). Output is a STRING. |
substring(column,beginInclusive,endExclusive) |
Get column.substring(beginInclusive,endExclusive). Output is a STRING. |
truncate(column,width) |
truncate column by width. Output type is same with column.If the column is a STRING, truncate(column,width) will truncate the string to width characters, namely `value.substring(0, width)`. If the column is an INT or LONG, truncate(column,width) will truncate the number with the algorithm `v - (((v % W) + W) % W)`. The `redundant` compute part is to keep the result always positive. If the column is a DECIMAL, truncate(column,width) will truncate the decimal with the algorithm: let `scaled_W = decimal(W, scale(v))`, then return `v - (v % scaled_W)`. |
cast(value,dataType) |
Get a constant value. The output is an atomic type, such as STRING, INT, BOOLEAN, etc. |
