Hi Experts, I want to use an aggregate function that will return the most commonly occurring value in a column. The column consists of VARCHAR(32) values. Is it possible to construct such an aggregate using PL/PgSql ? If I was trying to do something like this in Perl I would use a hash table to store the values and the number of times each was seen as the table was iterated, but PL/PgSql does not seem to have an appropriate data type for that? I don't want to use PL/Perl to avoid the overhead of starting a perl interpreter for that. Do I have to write the function in C maybe?
