REGR_COUNT

Description

Returns the number of non-null (y, x) pairs in a group, where x is the independent variable and y is the dependent variable. If there are no valid non-null pairs, the function returns 0.

Syntax

REGR_COUNT(<y>, <x>)

Parameters

ParameterDescription
<y>The dependent variable. Supported type: Double.
<x>The independent variable. Supported type: Double.

Return Value

Returns a BIGINT value representing the number of non-null (y, x) pairs. If there are no rows in the group, or there are no valid non-null (y, x) pairs, the function returns 0.

Example

CREATE TABLE test_regr (
`id` int,
`x` double,
`y` double
) DUPLICATE KEY (`id`)
DISTRIBUTED BY HASH(`id`) BUCKETS AUTO
PROPERTIES (
"replication_allocation" = "tag.location.default: 1"
);

INSERT INTO test_regr VALUES
(1, 0, NULL),
(2, 1, 3),
(2, 2, 5),
(2, 3, 7),
(2, 4, 9),
(2, 5, NULL);
SELECT id, REGR_COUNT(y, x) FROM test_regr GROUP BY id ORDER BY id;
+------+-------------------+
| id | REGR_COUNT(y, x) |
+------+-------------------+
| 1 | 0 |
| 2 | 4 |
+------+-------------------+

REGR_COUNT counts only non-null (y, x) pairs, so group 1 returns 0.
