Mar 31, 2010 · Interesting scenario. As you found, SELECT DISTINCT(a), b, c. is equivalent to: SELECT DISTINCT (a), b, c. is equivalent to: SELECT DISTINCT a, b, c. i.e. the parentheses are treated as expression grouping parentheses. Interestingly, a very similar issue occurs in VB6/VBScript where (for Function (byref x)) Function (x), Function x and Call ...

May 16, 2014 · 3. @DanielEarwicker this question is about "distinct by property". It would require the stream to be sorted by the same property, to be able to take advantage of it.

Oct 16, 2022 · The standard way to define distinct opaque types is to use incomplete structure declarations. A header used throughout the program simply declares struct foo; struct bar; and so on without saying anything about their contents.
