> Every kind
of function can take base types, composite types, or
combinations of these as arguments (parameters). In addition,
every kind of function can return a base type or
a composite type. Functions can also be defined to return
sets of base or composite values.
</P
><P
> Many kinds of functions can take or return certain pseudo-types
(such as polymorphic types), but the available facilities vary.
Consult the description of each kind of function for more details.
</P
><P
> It's easiest to define <ACRONYM
CLASS="ACRONYM"
>SQL</ACRONYM
>
functions, so we'll start by discussing those.
Most of the concepts presented for <ACRONYM
CLASS="ACRONYM"
>SQL</ACRONYM
> functions
will carry over to the other types of functions.

> Throughout this chapter, it can be useful to look at the reference
page of the <A

understand the examples better. Some examples from this chapter
can be found in <TT
