v.20.12New Feature
Add New Math Functions to ClickHouse
Add new math functions:acosh,asinh,atan2,atanh,cosh,hypot,log1p,sinh. #16636 (Konstantin Malanchev).
Why it matters
These functions extend ClickHouse's mathematical capabilities by providing commonly used hyperbolic and advanced math functions that were previously unavailable. This enables users to perform a wider range of mathematical computations directly within SQL queries, improving convenience and reducing the need for external processing.How to use it
Users can utilize the new functions directly in their SQL queries by calling them with the appropriate syntax, for example:SELECT acosh(column), atan2(y, x), log1p(value) FROM tableNo additional configuration or setup is required to use these functions once the new version including this feature is installed.
