FROM employees
| STATS SUM(languages)

SUM(languages):long
281

The expression can use inline functions. For example, to calculate the sum of each employee’s maximum salary changes, apply the MV_MAX function to each row and then sum the results

FROM employees
| STATS total_salary_changes = SUM(MV_MAX(salary_change))

total_salary_changes:double
446.75
