cts.avgAggregate

cts.avgAggregate(
   range-index as cts.reference,
   [options as String[]],
   [query as cts.query?],
   [forest-ids as (Number|String)[]]
) as xs.anyAtomicType?

Summary

Returns the average of the values given a value lexicon. This function works like cts:avg except it performs the calculation in parallel in all data nodes then aggregates the values. It generally performs better than cts:avg, especially on large clusters.

Example

//   This query assumes an element range index is configured
//   in the database for the 'Amount' element.

cts.avgAggregate(cts.elementReference(xs.QName("Amount")));
