sorry if this is a silly question.. i'm trying to sample a percentage of a table. from https://www.monetdb.org/Documentation/Cookbooks/SQLrecipes/Sampling it looks like these should work, but i must be making a mistake in my syntax somewhere? thanks!! create table test ( a int , b double precision ); insert into test values( 1 , 3.3 ); insert into test values( 13 , 2.3 ); insert into test values( 3 , 0.3 ); select * from test sample 0.1 ; TypeException:user.s12_1[9]:'sample.subuniform' undefined in: _18:any := sample. subuniform(_15:bat[:oid,:int], _16:dbl) program contains errors select * from test uniform sample 0.1 ; TypeException:user.s13_1[9]:'sample.subuniform' undefined in: _18:any := sample. subuniform(_15:bat[:oid,:int], _16:dbl) program contains errors # MonetDB 5 server v11.17.21 "Jan2014-SP3" # Serving database 'demo', using 8 threads # Compiled for x86_64-pc-winnt/64bit with 64bit OIDs dynamically linked # Found 7.860 GiB available main-memory. # Copyright (c) 1993-July 2008 CWI. # Copyright (c) August 2008-2014 MonetDB B.V., all rights reserved # Visit http://www.monetdb.org/ for further information # Listening for connection requests on mapi:monetdb://127.0.0.1:50000/ # MonetDB/JAQL module loaded # MonetDB/SQL module loaded >

Show create table equivalent
by Guillaume Bassot 23 Sep '14

23 Sep '14

Hello everyone, I'm looking for the mysql show create table equivalent. I need this as a query to get the result in a php script. (I already found how to do this with mclient and msqldumq) I found this query that need to be parsed to recreate the "CREATE TABLE". SELECT * FROM SYS.tables tbl INNER JOIN SYS.columns col ON (tbl.id=col.table_id) WHERE tbl.name='exemple'; But i still miss the table's constraints (primary key, unique key) Could you tell me where to find this information ? Thank you for helping. Guillaume BASSOT Web Developer +33 (0)1 55 48 02 82 gbassot(a)inbox.fr 30, rue Vincent Moris 92240 Malakoff - France Fax : +33 (0)1 55 48 02 79

Crashing when querying on date column
by Nick Chadwick 18 Sep '14

18 Sep '14

Hi. I'm currently evaluating MonetDB for an upcoming project, and am having some problems when using date criteria in the where clause. I have a very simple table: Create table negs (id varchar(50) not null, xdate date not null, market int, product int, notional double) Id and xdate form a composite primary key, and I have indices on xdate, market and product. If I run the following query: Select * from negs where xdate = current_date the client crashes. Similarly if I run the same query over a JDBC connection from java, the connection is lost. Looking in the log file, it says that the database was killed due to a SIGSEGV. Am I doing something wrong? I am running on Ubuntu 14.04, and built MonetDB from the latest source tarball, 11.17.21.

MonetDB Optimizer
by Steffen B 15 Sep '14

15 Sep '14

Hello, I'm writing a back end for Database Supported Haskell (DSH) to target MonetDB. Can I please get some help with running my generated MAL-code though an optimizer? I do not really understand the concept behind this: https://www.monetdb.org/Documentation/Manuals/MonetDB/Optimizers Do I have to generate optimizer code at the appropriate places in my code? Are the optimizer instructions woven into the MAL-Program? Isn't there a optimizer function `a la: optimize :: MalCode -> MalCode? Please be so kind and give me a little bit of futher explaination.

index on Monetdb
by Bing Zhang 11 Sep '14

11 Sep '14

Hello: I wonder whether the index will give monetdb query more performance or not. For example, like tpc-h queries, if I put index on the particular fields, then the query on over those fields will faster? Thanks & Regards.

hi: I am trying to measure query performance of monetdb, but not sure about the time output by using option -ims includes the query results printing time, or it is just the query time. Is there some way to silence the output of queries? Thanks.
