The Window function in a query, defines the window using the OVER() clause.

The OVER() clause has the following capabipties −

    Defines window partitions to form groups of rows. (PARTITION BY clause)

    Orders rows within a partition. (ORDER BY clause)

The following table describes the window functions in detail.

Function Return type Description
rank() int Returns rank of the current row with gaps.
row_num() int Returns the current row within its partition, counting from 1.
lead(value[, offset integer[, default any]]) Same as input type Returns value evaluated at the row that is offset rows after the current row within the partition. If there is no such row, default value will be returned.
lag(value[, offset integer[, default any]]) Same as input type Returns value evaluated at the row that is offset rows before the current row within the partition.
first_value(value) Same as input type Returns the first value of input rows.
