Examples

FROM employees
| STATS AVG(height)

AVG(height):double
1.7682

The expression can use inline functions. For example, to calculate the average over a multivalued column, first use MV_AVG to average the multiple values per row, and use the result with the AVG function

FROM employees
| STATS avg_salary_change = ROUND(AVG(MV_AVG(salary_change)), 10)

avg_salary_change:double
1.3904535865
