# Aggregate functions
|
|
|
|
Aggregate functions work in the [normal](http://www.sql-tutorial.com/sql-aggregate-functions-sql-tutorial) way as expected by database experts.
|
|
|
|
ClickHouse also supports:
|
|
|
|
- [Parametric aggregate functions](parametric_functions.md#aggregate_functions_parametric), which accept other parameters in addition to columns.
|
|
- [Combinators](combinators.md#aggregate_functions_combinators), which change the behavior of aggregate functions.
|
|
|
|
## NULL processing
|
|
|
|
During aggregation, all `NULL`s are skipped.
|
|
|
|
**Examples:**
|
|
|
|
Consider this table:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
┌─x─┬────y─┐
|
|
│ 1 │ 2 │
|
|
│ 2 │ ᴺᵁᴸᴸ │
|
|
│ 3 │ 2 │
|
|
│ 3 │ 3 │
|
|
│ 3 │ ᴺᵁᴸᴸ │
|
|
└───┴──────┘
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Let's say you need to total the values in the `y` column:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
:) SELECT sum(y) FROM t_null_big
|
|
|
|
SELECT sum(y)
|
|
FROM t_null_big
|
|
|
|
┌─sum(y)─┐
|
|
│ 7 │
|
|
└────────┘
|
|
|
|
1 rows in set. Elapsed: 0.002 sec.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `sum` function interprets `NULL` as `0`. In particular, this means that if the function receives input of a selection where all the values are `NULL`, then the result will be `0`, not `NULL`.
|
|
|
|
Now you can use the `groupArray` function to create an array from the `y` column:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
:) SELECT groupArray(y) FROM t_null_big
|
|
|
|
SELECT groupArray(y)
|
|
FROM t_null_big
|
|
|
|
┌─groupArray(y)─┐
|
|
│ [2,2,3] │
|
|
└───────────────┘
|
|
|
|
1 rows in set. Elapsed: 0.002 sec.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`groupArray` does not include `NULL` in the resulting array.
