Tanner Clary updated CALCITE-5564:
----------------------------------
    Description: 
Calcite currently has implementations for the {{PERCENTILE_CONT}} and 
{{PERCENTILE_DISC}} functions. Their syntax may be found 
[here|https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/t-sql/functions/percentile-cont-transact-sql?view=sql-server-ver16].
 

BigQuery offers these functions as well, but the syntax is slightly different, 
and may be found 
[here|https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/reference/standard-sql/functions-and-operators#percentile_cont].
 The main difference is that instead of using a {{WITHIN GROUP}} clause, the 
array is passed in directly as the first argument to the function.

BigQuery Syntax Example: {{SELECT PERCENTILE_CONT(x, .5) OVER() FROM 
UNNEST([1,2,3,4]) as x;}} would return the median, 2.5.

Standard Syntax Example: {{SELECT PERCENTILE_CONT(.5) WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY 
[some column])}}

Parsing and validation for the standard functions was added in CALCITE-4644.

The actual implementation for both the standard and BigQuery forms is covered 
under CALCITE-4666.
