Hi,

Suppose I have a table

 CREATE TABLE sal_emp (
    name            text,
    pay_by_quarter  integer[],
);

Now I have a query -

select * from sal_emp where pay_by_quarter && some_var

Now some var some times is fully empty, then I am getting error as 

PG::UndefinedFunction: ERROR:  operator does not exist: text[] && integer[]
       LINE 1: ...ps".* FROM "reporting_groups"  WHERE (ARRAY[NULL] && 
workpla...

                                                                    ^

How to fix this ? The error is taken from production and the example I gave 
above is the same as per our current query in production.

Perhaps the && (overlaps) operator will work best for you.
    Check out the available operators at:
