I have a table with a lot of columns. One of the columns I want to alias so
have a query of:
select *, column as newname from mytable.
The problem is I now have column and newname in the results. I don't want
to select column by column. How can I do a select * but omit one?
Thanks!
Many wrote that the functional programming 'fold' is a good model for
relational aggregate functions. I have a few difficulties with this:
1. fold doesn't offer any type of GROUP BY, which is an essential component
of aggregation.
2. I don't believe fold can handle things like AVG() or STDDEV().

Hi. Thanks for your reply.
I looked at the documentation for partitions - it is the case, right, that I
have to create the master table and the two partition tables (depending
on the value of rbscore) and then copy the records from the existing
table into the two partitions?
