Bitmap functions¶

Bitmaps can be constructed in two ways. The first way is constructed by aggregation function groupBitmap with -State, the other way is to constructed a bitmap from an Array object.

bitmapBuild¶

Builds a bitmap from an unsigned integer array.

Syntax

bitmapBuild(array)

Arguments

array – Unsigned integer array.

Example

SELECT bitmapBuild([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]) AS res, toTypeName(res)

┌─res─┬─toTypeName(bitmapBuild([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]))─────┐
│     │ AggregateFunction(groupBitmap, UInt8)        │
└─────┴──────────────────────────────────────────────┘

bitmapToArray¶

Converts bitmap to an integer array.

Syntax

bitmapToArray(bitmap)

Arguments

bitmap – Bitmap object.

Example

SELECT bitmapToArray(bitmapBuild([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])) AS res

Result:

┌─res─────────┐
│ [1,2,3,4,5] │
└─────────────┘

bitmapSubsetInRange¶

Returns the subset of a bitmap with bits within a value interval.

Syntax

bitmapSubsetInRange(bitmap, range_start, range_end)

Arguments

bitmap – Bitmap object.
range_start – Start of the range (inclusive). UInt32.
range_end – End of the range (exclusive). UInt32.

Example

SELECT bitmapToArray(bitmapSubsetInRange(bitmapBuild([0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,100,200,500]), toUInt32(30), toUInt32(200))) AS res

Result:

┌─res───────────────┐
│ [30,31,32,33,100] │
└───────────────────┘

bitmapSubsetLimit¶

Returns a subset of a bitmap with smallest bit value range_start and at most cardinality_limit elements.

Syntax

bitmapSubsetLimit(bitmap, range_start, cardinality_limit)

Arguments

bitmap – Bitmap object.
range_start – Start of the range (inclusive). UInt32.
cardinality_limit – Maximum cardinality of the subset. UInt32.

Example

SELECT bitmapToArray(bitmapSubsetLimit(bitmapBuild([0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,100,200,500]), toUInt32(30), toUInt32(200))) AS res

Result:

┌─res───────────────────────┐
│ [30,31,32,33,100,200,500] │
└───────────────────────────┘

subBitmap¶

Returns a subset of the bitmap, starting from position offset. The maximum cardinality of the returned bitmap is cardinality_limit.

Syntax

subBitmap(bitmap, offset, cardinality_limit)

Arguments

bitmap – The bitmap. Bitmap object.
offset – The position of the first element of the subset. UInt32.
cardinality_limit – The maximum number of elements in the subset. UInt32.

Example

SELECT bitmapToArray(subBitmap(bitmapBuild([0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,100,200,500]), toUInt32(10), toUInt32(10))) AS res

Result:

┌─res─────────────────────────────┐
│ [10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19] │
└─────────────────────────────────┘

bitmapContains¶

Checks whether the bitmap contains an element.

bitmapContains(bitmap, needle)

Arguments

bitmap – Bitmap object.
needle – Searched bit value. UInt32.

Returned values

0: If bitmap does not contain needle. UInt8.
1: If bitmap contains needle. UInt8.

Example

SELECT bitmapContains(bitmapBuild([1,5,7,9]), toUInt32(9)) AS res

Result:

┌─res─┐
│  1  │
└─────┘

bitmapHasAny¶

Checks whether two bitmaps intersect.

If bitmap2 contains exactly one element, consider using bitmapContains instead as it works more efficiently.

Syntax

bitmapHasAny(bitmap1, bitmap2)

Arguments

bitmap1 – Bitmap object 1.
bitmap2 – Bitmap object 2.

Return values

1, if bitmap1 and bitmap2 have at least one shared element.
0, otherwise.

Example

SELECT bitmapHasAny(bitmapBuild([1,2,3]),bitmapBuild([3,4,5])) AS res

Result:

┌─res─┐
│  1  │
└─────┘

bitmapHasAll¶

Returns 1 if the first bitmap contains all elements of the second bitmap, otherwise 0. If the second bitmap is empty, returns 1.

Also see hasAll(array, array).

Syntax

bitmapHasAll(bitmap1, bitmap2)

Arguments

bitmap1 – Bitmap object 1.
bitmap2 – Bitmap object 2.

Example

SELECT bitmapHasAll(bitmapBuild([1,2,3]),bitmapBuild([3,4,5])) AS res

Result:

┌─res─┐

bitmapTransform¶

Replaces at most N bits in a bitmap. The old and new value of the i-th replaced bit is given by from_array[i] and to_array[i].
