AVG

Returns the average (mean) of all the elements in the grouping.

Example:

df = pl.DataFrame({"bar": [20, 10, 30, 40]})
df.sql("""
  SELECT AVG(bar) AS bar_avg FROM self
""")
# shape: (1, 1)
# ┌─────────┐
# │ bar_avg │
# │ ---     │
# │ f64     │
# ╞═════════╡
# │ 25.0    │
# └─────────┘

COUNT

Returns the amount of elements in the grouping.

Example:

df = pl.DataFrame(
  {
    "foo": ["b", "a", "b", "c"],
    "bar": [20, 10, 30, 40]
  }
)
df.sql("""
  SELECT
    COUNT(bar) AS n_bar,
    COUNT(DISTINCT foo) AS n_foo_unique
  FROM self
""")

# shape: (1, 2)
# ┌───────┬──────────────┐
# │ n_bar ┆ n_foo_unique │
# │ ---   ┆ ---          │
# │ u32   ┆ u32          │
# ╞═══════╪══════════════╡
# │ 4     ┆ 3            │
# └───────┴──────────────┘

FIRST

Returns the first element of the grouping.

Example:

df = pl.DataFrame({"foo": ["b", "a", "b", "c"]})
df.sql("""
  SELECT FIRST(foo) AS ff FROM self
""")
# shape: (1, 1)
# ┌─────┐
# │ ff  │
# │ --- │
# │ str │
# ╞═════╡
# │ b   │
# └─────┘

LAST

Returns the last element of the grouping.

Example:

df = pl.DataFrame({"foo": ["b", "a", "b", "c"]})
df.sql("""
  SELECT LAST(foo) AS lf FROM self
""")
# shape: (1, 1)
# ┌─────┐
# │ lf  │
# │ --- │
# │ str │
# ╞═════╡
# │ c   │
# └─────┘

MAX

Returns the greatest (maximum) of all the elements in the grouping.

Example:

df = pl.DataFrame({"bar": [20, 10, 30, 40]})
df.sql("""
  SELECT MAX(bar) AS bar_max FROM self
""")
# shape: (1, 1)
# ┌─────────┐
# │ bar_max │
# │ ---     │
# │ i64     │
# ╞═════════╡
# │ 40      │
# └─────────┘

MEDIAN

Returns the median element from the grouping.

Example:

df = pl.DataFrame({"bar": [20, 10, 30, 40]})
df.sql("""
  SELECT MEDIAN(bar) AS bar_median FROM self
""")
# shape: (1, 1)
# ┌────────────┐
# │ bar_median │
# │ ---        │
# │ f64        │
# ╞════════════╡
# │ 25.0       │
# └────────────┘

MIN

Returns the smallest (minimum) of all the elements in the grouping.

Example:

df = pl.DataFrame({"bar": [20, 10, 30, 40]})
df.sql("""
  SELECT MIN(bar) AS bar_min FROM self
""")
# shape: (1, 1)
# ┌─────────┐
# │ bar_min │
# │ ---     │
# │ i64     │
# ╞═════════╡
# │ 10      │
# └─────────┘

STDDEV

Returns the standard deviation of all the elements in the grouping.
