Summary

Returns an unsignedLong specifying the index of the bucket the second parameter belongs to in buckets formed by the first parameter. Values that lie on the edge of a bucket fall to the greater index.

Parameters
bucketEdgesParam A sequence of ordered values indicating the edges of a collection of buckets. If the sequence is out of order or has duplicates, SQL-UNORDERED is thrown.
srchParam A value to find an index for in the bucket edge list.
collationLiteral A collation identifier. All bucketEdgesParam and srcParam are converted to a string of this collation if supplied.
