postgreSQL Data Types
Arrays
In PostgreSQL you can create Arrays of any built-in, user-defined or enum type. In default there is no limit to an Array, but you can specify it.
Declaring an Array
SELECT integer[];
SELECT integer[3];
SELECT integer[][];
SELECT integer[3][3];
SELECT integer ARRAY;
SELECT integer ARRAY[3];Creating an Array
SELECT '{0,1,2}';
SELECT '{{0,1},{1,2}}';
SELECT ARRAY[0,1,2];
SELECT ARRAY[ARRAY[0,1],ARRAY[1,2]];Accessing an Array
By default PostgreSQL uses a one-based numbering convention for arrays, that is, an array of n elements starts with array[1] and ends with array[n].
--accesing a spefific element
WITH arr AS (SELECT ARRAY[0,1,2] int_arr) SELECT int_arr[1] FROM arr;
int_arr
---------
0
(1 row)
--sclicing an array
WITH arr AS (SELECT ARRAY[0,1,2] int_arr) SELECT int_arr[1:2] FROM arr;
int_arr
---------
{0,1}
(1 row)
