Not equivalent to the use of NOT ARRAY and entirely possible I have misunderstood the requirement ...do you have some more test cases the non array solution does not work for

Hi Hector. Hopefully this is not a stupid question...How is that equivalent from the `NOT ARRAY ... <@ ...` though?The inner-join-distinct above will return test_id's on any match, but youcan't know if all array values are matches. Which is different from> Is the first array contained by the secondfrom the <@ operator, no?I'm unfamiliar with these operators, so am I missing something?Just trying to understand the logic here. Thanks, --DD
