help with trigger - PostgreSQL Database

Dino Vliet

Hi folks,
I'm new to PostgreSQL and am busy tring to work with
it. Of pl/pgsql I know even less and that's the part I
have a question on right now. I have this nice example
to get me started with
pl/pgsql.......

I have a table with the schedule of a service my sport
team wants to offer:

Table Schedule
name length startdate enddate day
soccer 4 01-sep-2004 30-sep-2004 Mon
tennis 4 01-sep-2004 30-sep-2004 Wed

This means, that I want to offer soccer weekly, for a
total of 4 weeks as from 1st sep till 30 sep on
Mondays!

Now, what I do want is a second table that creates all
the dates on which there will be soccer training if I
finish entering this record in table Schedule. So,
then the other table, called ScheduledDates has the
follwing records:

Table ScheduleDates
name occurrence date
soccer 1 06-sep-2004
soccer 2 13-sep-2004
soccer 3 20-sep-2004
soccer 4 27-sep-2004

Can someone help me with writing this as a trigger in
pl/pgsql?

Another variant is that the trigger starts when the
table Schedule is populated, but it not just
automatically creates the 4 records as described
above, but because the date 20-sep-2004 is a national
holiday and is in table Exceptions, the sheme just
shifts one up and the occurrence 4 becomes occurrence
3 and the last schedule date becomes monday the 4th of
october!

I hope you can help me with this one, will put me way
up the learning curve of pl/pgsql

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
