{ } { { MAX } } { { MIN } } { { TOTAL } value-expr } OF rse { { AVERAGE } } { } { COUNT } { } Specifies a value by forming a record stream (as indicated by a record selection expression), and evaluating its value expression against every record in the record stream. Statistical expressions are sometimes called aggregate expressions because they calculate a single value for a collection of records. When you use a statistical expression (except for COUNT), you specify a value expression and an RSE. A layered product evaluates the value expression for each record in the record stream formed by the RSE. Then the product calculates a single value based on the results of the first step. The COUNT expression differs from the other statistical operators because it operates on the record stream defined by the RSE, rather than on values in that record stream. It returns the number of records in the record stream. In the following expression, the number of employees working in New Hampshire is returned. COUNT OF E IN EMPLOYEES WITH STATE IN E = "NH"
