Dear all,

   Recently, I am learning the MonetDB,I know that a MAL instrction is corresponding to a C-function. such as a MAL instrction algebra.select() is corresponding to ALGselectInclusive(); and the corresponding file is algebra.mal, for example,

 

command select(b:bat[:any_1,:any_2], low:any_2,
 high:any_2, li:bit, hi:bit) :bat[:any_1,:any_2]
address ALGselectInclusive
comment "Select all BUNs that have tail values: {v| low <{=} v <{=} high}.
 Boundary inclusion is indicated separately.
 NIL boundary values have a special meaning.
 + low  == nil means: no lower bound
 + high == nil means: no upper bound.";

 

 

My question is ,in MonetDB souces code, how to corresponding the MAL to the C-function, how to implement it ? and how to transfer the parameter from MAL to C-function?

Best regards!
