For example, assuming array $1 is '{5,10,15}' it will yield: ?column? │ ?column? ──────────┼────────── 5 │ 1 10 │ 2 15 │ 3 (3 rows) basically old way to achieve unpacking of array, these days normally it would be called like: $ select * from unnest('{5,10,15}'::int4[]) with ordinality; unnest │ ordinality ────────┼──────────── 5 │ 1 10 │ 2 15 │ 3 (3 rows) What is running it it's hard to say, the query doesn't strike me as something that any db driver would call on its own. depesz
