The NTile
function divides the rows for each window partition into n
buckets ranging from 1 to at most n
. Bucket values will differ by at most 1. If the number of rows in the partition doesn't divide evenly into the number of buckets, then the remainder values are distributed one per bucket, starting with the first bucket. The NTile
function is useful for the calculation of tertiles
, quartiles, deciles, and other common summary statistics. The function calculates two variables during initialization: The size of a regular bucket will have one extra row added to it. Both variables are based on the size of the current partition. During the calculation process the function keeps track of the current row number, the current bucket number, and the row number at which the bucket will change (bucketThreshold). When the current row number reaches bucket threshold, the bucket value is increased by one and the threshold is increased by the bucket size (plus one extra if the current bucket is padded).
