Julian Hyde commented on PHOENIX-1516:
--------------------------------------

I see flaws in Oracle [ 
https://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14258/d_random.htm#ARPLS040 ], 
Postgres [ http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/functions-math.html ], 
MSSQL [ http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms177610.aspx ] specifications. 
Liking MySQL's specification [ 
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/mathematical-functions.html#function_rand
 ] the most. DB2 [ 
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSEPEK_11.0.0/com.ibm.db2z11.doc.sqlref/src/tpc/db2z_bif_rand.dita
 ] is OK except that it makes rand() the same as rand(0).

> Add RANDOM built-in function

> I often find it useful to generate some rows with random data.
> Here's a simple RANDOM() function that we could use for that.
