Name (Signature)

Description

DOUBLE

round(DOUBLE a)

Returns the rounded BIGINT value of a.

DOUBLE

round(DOUBLE a, INT d)

Returns a rounded to d decimal places.

DOUBLEbround(DOUBLE a)Returns the rounded BIGINT value of a using HALF_EVEN rounding mode (as of Hive 1.3.0, 2.0.0). Also known as Gaussian rounding or bankers' rounding. Example: bround(2.5) = 2, bround(3.5) = 4.
DOUBLEbround(DOUBLE a, INT d)Returns a rounded to d decimal places using HALF_EVEN rounding mode (as of Hive 1.3.0, 2.0.0). Example: bround(8.25, 1) = 8.2, bround(8.35, 1) = 8.4.

BIGINT

floor(DOUBLE a)

Returns the maximum BIGINT value that is equal to or less than a.

BIGINT

ceil(DOUBLE a), ceiling(DOUBLE a)

Returns the minimum BIGINT value that is equal to or greater than a.

DOUBLE

rand(), rand(INT seed)

Returns a random number (that changes from row to row) that is distributed uniformly from 0 to 1. Specifying the seed will make sure the generated random number sequence is deterministic.

DOUBLE

exp(DOUBLE a), exp(DECIMAL a)

Returns ea where e is the base of the natural logarithm. Decimal version added in Hive 0.13.0.

DOUBLE

ln(DOUBLE a), ln(DECIMAL a)

Returns the natural logarithm of the argument a. Decimal version added in Hive 0.13.0.

DOUBLE

log10(DOUBLE a), log10(DECIMAL a)

Returns the base-10 logarithm of the argument a. Decimal version added in Hive 0.13.0.

DOUBLE

log2(DOUBLE a), log2(DECIMAL a)

Returns the base-2 logarithm of the argument a. Decimal version added in Hive 0.13.0.

DOUBLE

log(DOUBLE base, DOUBLE a)

log(DECIMAL base, DECIMAL a)

Returns the base-base logarithm of the argument a. Decimal versions added in Hive 0.13.0.

DOUBLE

pow(DOUBLE a, DOUBLE p), power(DOUBLE a, DOUBLE p)

Returns ap.

DOUBLE

sqrt(DOUBLE a), sqrt(DECIMAL a)

Returns the square root of a. Decimal version added in Hive 0.13.0.

STRING

bin(BIGINT a)

Returns the number in binary format (see http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/string-functions.html#function_bin).

STRING

hex(BIGINT a) hex(STRING a) hex(BINARY a)

If the argument is an INT or binary, hex returns the number as a STRING in hexadecimal format. Otherwise if the number is a STRING, it converts each character into its hexadecimal representation and returns the resulting STRING. (See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/string-functions.html#function_hex, BINARY version as of Hive 0.12.0.)

BINARY

unhex(STRING a)

Inverse of hex. Interprets each pair of characters as a hexadecimal number and converts to the byte representation of the number. (BINARY version as of Hive 0.12.0, used to return a string.)

STRING

conv(BIGINT num, INT from_base, INT to_base), conv(STRING num, INT from_base, INT to_base)

Converts a number from a given base to another (see http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/mathematical-functions.html#function_conv).

DOUBLE

abs(DOUBLE a)

Returns the absolute value.

INT or DOUBLE

pmod(INT a, INT b), pmod(DOUBLE a, DOUBLE b)

Returns the positive value of a mod b.

DOUBLE

sin(DOUBLE a), sin(DECIMAL a)

Returns the sine of a (a is in radians). Decimal version added in Hive 0.13.0.

DOUBLE

asin(DOUBLE a), asin(DECIMAL a)

Returns the arc sin of a if -1<=a<=1 or NULL otherwise. Decimal version added in Hive 0.13.0.

DOUBLE

cos(DOUBLE a), cos(DECIMAL a)

Returns the cosine of a (a is in radians). Decimal version added in Hive 0.13.0.

DOUBLE

acos(DOUBLE a), acos(DECIMAL a)

Returns the arccosine of a if -1<=a<=1 or NULL otherwise. Decimal version added in Hive 0.13.0.

DOUBLE

tan(DOUBLE a), tan(DECIMAL a)

Returns the tangent of a (a is in radians). Decimal version added in Hive 0.13.0.

DOUBLE

atan(DOUBLE a), atan(DECIMAL a)

Returns the arctangent of a. Decimal version added in Hive 0.13.0.

DOUBLE

degrees(DOUBLE a), degrees(DECIMAL a)

Converts value of a from radians to degrees. Decimal version added in Hive 0.13.0.

DOUBLE

radians(DOUBLE a), radians(DOUBLE a)

Converts value of a from degrees to radians. Decimal version added in Hive 0.13.0.

INT or DOUBLE

positive(INT a), positive(DOUBLE a)

Returns a.

INT or DOUBLE

negative(INT a), negative(DOUBLE a)

Returns -a.

DOUBLE or INT

sign(DOUBLE a), sign(DECIMAL a)

Returns the sign of a as '1.0' (if a is positive) or '-1.0' (if a is negative), '0.0' otherwise. The decimal version returns INT instead of DOUBLE. Decimal version added in Hive 0.13.0.

DOUBLE

e()

Returns the value of e.

DOUBLE

pi()

Returns the value of pi.

BIGINTfactorial(INT a)Returns the factorial of a (as of Hive 1.2.0). Valid a is [0..20].
DOUBLEcbrt(DOUBLE a)Returns the cube root of a double value (as of Hive 1.2.0).

INT

BIGINT

shiftleft(TINYINT|SMALLINT|INT a, INT b)

shiftleft(BIGINT a, INT b)

Bitwise left shift (as of Hive 1.2.0). Shifts a b positions to the left.

Returns int for tinyint, smallint and int a. Returns bigint for bigint a.

INT

BIGINT

shiftright(TINYINT|SMALLINT|INT a, INT b)

shiftrightunsigned(BIGINT a, INT b)

Bitwise unsigned right shift (as of Hive 1.2.0). Shifts a b positions to the right.

Returns int for tinyint, smallint and int a. Returns bigint for bigint a.

Tgreatest(T v1, T v2, ...)Returns the greatest value of the list of values (as of Hive 1.1.0). Fixed to return NULL when one or more arguments are NULL, and strict type restriction relaxed, consistent with ">" operator (as of Hive 2.0.0).
