Jinfeng Ni updated DRILL-2411:
------------------------------
Component/s: (was: Query Planning & Optimization)
Execution - Relational Operators
> Scalar SUM/AVG over empty result set returns no rows instead of NULL
> --------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DRILL-2411
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-2411
> Project: Apache Drill
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Execution - Relational Operators
> Reporter: Victoria Markman
> Assignee: Jinfeng Ni
>
> Queries below should return NULL:
> {code}
> 0: jdbc:drill:schema=dfs> select sum(a2) from t2 where 1=0;
> +------------+
> | EXPR$0 |
> +------------+
> +------------+
> No rows selected (0.08 seconds)
> 0: jdbc:drill:schema=dfs> select avg(a2) from t2 where 1=0;
> +------------+
> | EXPR$0 |
> +------------+
> +------------+
> No rows selected (0.074 seconds)
> {code}
> When grouped, result is correct:
> {code}
> 0: jdbc:drill:schema=dfs> select a2, sum(a2) from t2 where 1=0 group by a2;
> +------------+------------+
> | a2 | EXPR$1 |
> +------------+------------+
> +------------+------------+
> No rows selected (0.11 seconds)
> {code}
> I'm not convinced and it is not very intuitive that correct result should be NULL, but this is what postgres returns and Aman thinks NULL is the correct behavior :)
