intervalLengthSum

Introduced in: v21.7.0 Takes multiple numeric ranges and calculates the total length when all overlapping parts are combined into a single unified range.

Arguments must be of the same data type. Otherwise, an exception will be thrown.

Syntax

intervalLengthSum(start, end)

Arguments

start — The starting value of the interval. (U)Int32/64 or Float* or DateTime or Date
end — The ending value of the interval. (U)Int32/64 or Float* or DateTime or Date

Returned value Returns the total length of union of all ranges (segments on numeric axis). Depending on the type of the argument, the return value may be UInt64 or Float64 type. UInt64 or Float64 Examples Float32 example

Query

CREATE TABLE fl_interval (id String, start Float32, end Float32) ENGINE = Memory;
INSERT INTO fl_interval VALUES ('a', 1.1, 2.9), ('a', 2.5, 3.2), ('a', 4, 5);

SELECT id, intervalLengthSum(start, end), toTypeName(intervalLengthSum(start, end)) FROM fl_interval GROUP BY id ORDER BY id;

Response

┌─id─┬─intervalLengthSum(start, end)─┬─toTypeName(intervalLengthSum(start, end))─┐

DateTime example

Query

CREATE TABLE dt_interval (id String, start DateTime, end DateTime) ENGINE = Memory;
INSERT INTO dt_interval VALUES ('a', '2020-01-01 01:12:30', '2020-01-01 02:10:10'), ('a', '2020-01-01 02:05:30', '2020-01-01 02:50:31'), ('a', '2020-01-01 03:11:22', '2020-01-01 03:23:31');

SELECT id, intervalLengthSum(start, end), toTypeName(intervalLengthSum(start, end)) FROM dt_interval GROUP BY id ORDER BY id;

Response

┌─id─┬─intervalLengthSum(start, end)─┬─toTypeName(intervalLengthSum(start, end))─┐
│ a  │                          6610 │ UInt64                                    │
└────┴───────────────────────────────┴───────────────────────────────────────────┘

Date example

Query

CREATE TABLE date_interval (id String, start Date, end Date) ENGINE = Memory;
INSERT INTO date_interval VALUES ('a', '2020-01-01', '2020-01-04'), ('a', '2020-01-12', '2020-01-18');

SELECT id, intervalLengthSum(start, end), toTypeName(intervalLengthSum(start, end)) FROM date_interval GROUP BY id ORDER BY id;

Response

┌─id─┬─intervalLengthSum(start, end)─┬─toTypeName(intervalLengthSum(start, end))─┐
│ a  │                             9 │ UInt64                                    │
