Ladies and Gentlemen,
Please, enlighten me, if you can, in the following matter:
I made a type:
create type my_type as (
a integer,
b integer
);
since I have a table:
create table my_table (
a integer;
);
and I have now a function too:
create or replace function my_func (
integer, -- a
integer, -- b
) returns setof my_type as
'
declare
pa alias for $1;
pb alias for $2;
-- declarations
my_value my_type;
begin
my_value.a := pa;
my_value.b := pb;
return my_value;
end;
' language 'plpgsql';
when I run this darling function I get a parse error pointing to the line after "begin".
What am I doing wrong? I have skimmed through all the manuals, had a look at the postgresql cookbook, no info on this. I just would like to have a function that returns more fields at the same time - add a column to table my_table, where I could occasionally return some value (e.g. error code). Howto do this?
Thanks for your advice in advance

Try this....

) returns my_type as

pa alias for $1;

my_value record;

The current Python standard library provides two cryptographic
hash functions: MD5 and SHA-1 . The authors of MD5 originally
stated:
It is conjectured that it is computationally infeasible to
produce two messages having the same message digest.
That conjecture is false, as demonstrated by Wang, Feng, Lai and
Yu in 2004 . Just recently, Wang, Yu, and Lin showed a short-
cut solution for finding collisions in SHA-1 . Their result

By reuse, I mean a function in an assembly which is called in another

I've tried googling for the answer to this one, but haven't found anything.
In the following code snippet

DoSomething;
If SomeValue is False, will SomeFunc() be evaluated? Or will the
evaluation stop when a False is encountered in a boolean AND expression?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
