This expression language supports the following operators (listed in decreasing order of precedence).
|Operators|Description|
|---------|-----------|
|!, -|Unary NOT and Minus|
|^|Binary power op|
|*, /, %|Binary multiplicative|
|+, -|Binary additive|
|<, <=, >, >=, ==, !=|Binary Comparison|
|&&, &#124;&#124;|Binary Logical AND, OR|
Long, double, and string data types are supported. If a number contains a dot, it is interpreted as a double, otherwise
it is interpreted as a long. That means, always add a '.' to your number if you want it interpreted as a double value.
String literals should be quoted by single quotation marks.
Additionally, the expression language supports long, double, and string arrays. Array literals are created by wrapping
square brackets around a list of scalar literals values delimited by a comma or space character. All values in an array
literal must be the same type.
Expressions can contain variables. Variable names may contain letters, digits, '\_' and '$'. Variable names must not
begin with a digit. To escape other special characters, you can quote it with double quotation marks.
For logical operators, a number is true if and only if it is positive (0 or negative value means false). For string
type, it's the evaluation result of 'Boolean.valueOf(string)'.
[Multi-value string dimensions](../querying/multi-value-dimensions.html) are supported and may be treated as either
scalar or array typed values. When treated as a scalar type, an expression will automatically be transformed to apply
the scalar operation across all values of the multi-valued type, to mimic Druid's native behavior. Values that result in
arrays will be coerced back into the native Druid string type for aggregation. Druid aggregations on multi-value string
dimensions on the individual values, _not_ the 'array', behaving similar to the `UNNEST` operator available in many SQL
dialects. However, by using the `array_to_string` function, aggregations may be done on a stringified version of the
complete array, allowing the complete row to be preserved. Using `string_to_array` in an expression post-aggregator,
allows transforming the stringified dimension back into the true native array type.
The following built-in functions are available.
## General functions
|name|description|
|----|-----------|
|cast|cast(expr,'LONG' or 'DOUBLE' or 'STRING' or 'LONG_ARRAY', or 'DOUBLE_ARRAY' or 'STRING_ARRAY') returns expr with specified type. exception can be thrown. Scalar types may be cast to array types and will take the form of a single element list (null will still be null). |
|if|if(predicate,then,else) returns 'then' if 'predicate' evaluates to a positive number, otherwise it returns 'else' |
|nvl|nvl(expr,expr-for-null) returns 'expr-for-null' if 'expr' is null (or empty string for string type) |
|like|like(expr, pattern[, escape]) is equivalent to SQL `expr LIKE pattern`|
|case_searched|case_searched(expr1, result1, \[\[expr2, result2, ...\], else-result\])|
|case_simple|case_simple(expr, value1, result1, \[\[value2, result2, ...\], else-result\])|

## IP address functions
For the IPv4 address functions, the `address` argument can either be an IPv4 dotted-decimal string
(e.g., "192.168.0.1") or an IP address represented as a long (e.g., 3232235521). The `subnet`
argument should be a string formatted as an IPv4 address subnet in CIDR notation (e.g.,
"192.168.0.0/16").
| function | description |
| --- | --- |
| ipv4_match(address, subnet) | Returns 1 if the `address` belongs to the `subnet` literal, else 0. If `address` is not a valid IPv4 address, then 0 is returned. This function is more efficient if `address` is a long instead of a string.|
| ipv4_parse(address) | Parses `address` into an IPv4 address stored as a long. If `address` is a long that is a valid IPv4 address, then it is passed through. Returns null if `address` cannot be represented as an IPv4 address. |
| ipv4_stringify(address) | Converts `address` into an IPv4 address dotted-decimal string. If `address` is a string that is a valid IPv4 address, then it is passed through. Returns null if `address` cannot be represented as an IPv4 address.|
