Hi,
I am biwildered at how to create a multi-line plpython function in Postgres. When I create the function in one line like this:
CREATE or REPLACE FUNCTION circ (float)
RETURNS float AS 'from math import pi; return 2*pi*args[0]' LANGUAGE plpythonu;
and then use SELECT circ(1) to test it, it runs well.
But if I try to make the code looks better by separating it into mulitple lines, like this:
CREATE or REPLACE FUNCTION circ (float) RETURNS float AS ' from math import pi return 2*pi*args[0]' LANGUAGE plpythonu;
I got an error message:
ERROR: plpython: could not compile function "circ" DETAIL: exceptions.SyntaxError: invalid syntax (line 2)
How to get Postgres to accept a normal looking python function?
