Multi-column update based on joined table
by Lee Hachadoorian 11 Aug '24

11 Aug '24

I need to update multiple columns (~250) from one table to another based on a two-column key. In Postgres I would write this using the FROM clause, but since MonetDB doesn't support the FROM clause, I've successfully updated one column with: UPDATE census.acs2010_5yr SET b07401001 = ( SELECT CAST(b07401001 AS int) FROM acs2010_5yr.tmp_seq0001 WHERE acs2010_5yr.stusab = tmp_seq0001.stusab AND acs2010_5yr.logrecno = tmp_seq0001.logrecno ); My question is whether there is any benefit to writing a multiple column update into a single UPDATE statement: UPDATE target_table SET column1 = (SELECT column1 FROM source_table WHERE target_table.key = source_table.key), column2 = (SELECT column2 FROM source_table WHERE target_table.key = source_table.key), ..., columnN = (SELECT columnN FROM source_table WHERE target_table.key = source_table.key); On Postgres I believe the multi-column update using a table join would only have to do the sequential scan of each table once, but with the necessity of sub-selects in MonetDB, what is the backend doing? Is it already doing an index scan once for each row in the single column case, then doing it once for each row * column in the multi-column case?

[MonetDB-users] XQuery API and XLink/XUpdate support
by Alexandra Mart�nez 27 Jun '24

27 Jun '24

Hello all, I was wondering if there is any documentation about the API for XQuery (i.e., how to write xqueries from a Java program). Also, I am interested in using some features of XLink and XUpdate on top of my XML database. Is support for any of these in progress? Thanks in advance, Alexandra ______________________________________________________ Click here to donate to the Hurricane Katrina relief effort. http://store.yahoo.com/redcross-donate3/

Remote Table IS NULL
by Siklós Gábor 27 Mar '17

27 Mar '17

Hi there, We have an issue about the remote table on monetdb version of 2016 (sp1 and sp2) on Ubuntu 14.04 and on Windows Server2012 R2 The scenario for reproducing the issue with two nodes on node1 Create a table on remote node and fill it: CREATE TABLE test(id int not null, name text, valid boolean); INSERT INTO test (id, name) VALUES (1, '1'); INSERT INTO test (id, name) VALUES (2, '2'); INSERT INTO test (id) VALUES (3); on node2 CREATE REMOTE TABLE test(id int not null, name text, valid boolean) ON 'mapi:monetdb://node1:50000/dbfarm'; Then on node2: select * from test; +------+------+-------+ | id | name | valid | +======+======+=======+ | 1 | 1 | null | | 2 | 2 | null | | 3 | null | null | +------+------+-------+ It works fine, but: select * from test where name is null; +----+------+-------+ | id | name | valid | +====+======+=======+ +----+------+-------+ id 3 should appear here. Furthermore: select * from test where name is not null; (mapi:monetdb://monetdb@192.168.254.31/reports2) Cannot register project ( select ( table(sys.test) [ test.id NOT NULL, test.name, test.valid ] COUNT ) [ clob "NULL" ! <= test.name ! <= clob "NULL" ] ) [ test.id NOT NULL, test.name, test.valid ] REMOTE mapi:monetdb://.../... select * from test where valid is null; illegal input, not a JSON header (got '') and node1 is crashed (need : monetdb start farm). After downgrading on ubuntu 14.04 to version of 2015 (SP4) this scenraio works fine. Thanks, SG

Python Aggregate functions
by Anderson, David B 06 Feb '17

06 Feb '17

Mark, I think there is a bug in the implementation of the PYTHON_MAP aggregate functions. The return value of a PYTHON_MAP aggregate function can change if there are other functions in the query. The return value of my function weighted_percentile_0 (definition below) changes if I include the function median() in my query. The results are incorrect if median() isn't in the query, but are correct if median() is in the query. In this test case, the weights (v2) are all 1 and the values (v1) are uniformly sampled integers from [1,10]. Number of rows for each fctr is ~1000, and my function should reduce to min(v1) in this case. Is some information bleeding between threads? Should I submit a bug report? This is on the default branch. Thanks, Dave sql>select fctr,weighted_percentile_0(v1,v2),min(v1) from mini where fctr < 10 group by fctr order by fctr; +------+--------------------------+------+ | fctr | L1 | L2 | +======+==========================+======+ | 1 | 3 | 1 | | 2 | 2 | 1 | | 3 | 2 | 1 | | 4 | 1 | 1 | | 5 | 3 | 1 | | 6 | 3 | 1 | | 7 | 2 | 1 | | 8 | 1 | 1 | | 9 | 2 | 1 | +------+--------------------------+------+ 9 tuples (126.928ms) sql>select fctr,weighted_percentile_0(v1,v2),min(v1),median(v1) from mini where fctr < 10 group by fctr order by fctr; +------+--------------------------+------+------+ | fctr | L1 | L2 | L3 | +======+==========================+======+======+ | 1 | 1 | 1 | 5 | | 2 | 1 | 1 | 5 | | 3 | 1 | 1 | 5 | | 4 | 1 | 1 | 5 | | 5 | 1 | 1 | 5 | | 6 | 1 | 1 | 5 | | 7 | 1 | 1 | 5 | | 8 | 1 | 1 | 5 | | 9 | 1 | 1 | 5 | +------+--------------------------+------+------+ 9 tuples (519.195ms) sql> CREATE AGGREGATE weighted_percentile_0(a DOUBLE, w DOUBLE) RETURNS DOUBLE LANGUAGE PYTHON_MAP { import numpy as np # Standardize and sort based on values in a q = np.array([0]) / 100.0 idx = np.argsort(a) a_sort = a[idx] w_sort = w[idx] # Get the cumulative sum of weights ecdf = np.cumsum(w_sort) # Find the percentile index positions associated with the percentiles p = q * (w_sort.sum() - 1) # Find the bounding indices (both low and high) idx_low = np.searchsorted(ecdf, p, side='right') idx_high = np.searchsorted(ecdf, p + 1, side='right') idx_high[idx_high > ecdf.size - 1] = ecdf.size - 1 # Calculate the weights weights_high = p - np.floor(p) weights_low = 1.0 - weights_high # Extract the low/high indexes and multiply by the corresponding weights x1 = np.take(a_sort, idx_low) * weights_low x2 = np.take(a_sort, idx_high) * weights_high wp = np.add(x1,x2) return(wp[0]) };

Getting "NOT NULL constraint violated" for a column with a DEFAULT value
by Eyal Rozenberg 24 Oct '16

24 Oct '16

I have a column defined as follows: "div5tailnum" VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL DEFAULT '' (that's the output of \d mytable), or if you like: Div5TailNum VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL DEFAULT '' (that's from the CREATE TABLE command). I'm trying to load data from a CSV file using the following SQL: COPY OFFSET 2 INTO mytable FROM file.csv USING DELIMITERS ',','\n','"' NULL AS ''; but I get: INSERT INTO: NOT NULL constraint violated for column ontime.div5tailnum shouldn't that be impossible, seeing how I've provided a default?

Cannot install MonetDB on Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS (Xenial Xerus)
by Peter Lee 24 Oct '16

24 Oct '16

Hi- I couldn't install MonetDB on Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS (Xenial Xerus) hosted on EC2 yesterday. I kept getting the error below. It looks like the repository does not have a "source" folder. However, I noticed that the "Trusty" version had a "source" folder, and so I tried installing the Trusty version on my Xenial box, and it installed successfully. So far, I haven't encountered any problems, but was there anything I did wrong in the installation process? Will I encounter problems down the road with the Trusty version installed on a Xenial box? $ sudo apt-get update Hit:1 http://us-east-1.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial InRelease Hit:2 http://us-east-1.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-updates InRelease Hit:3 http://us-east-1.ec2.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-backports InRelease Get:4 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security InRelease [94.5 kB] Ign:5 http://dev.monetdb.org/downloads/deb xenial InRelease Get:6 http://dev.monetdb.org/downloads/deb xenial Release [2,715 B] Get:7 http://dev.monetdb.org/downloads/deb xenial Release.gpg [163 B] Fetched 97.3 kB in 0s (185 kB/s) Reading package lists...
