/**
 * An ordered-set aggregate function.
 * 
 * An ordered-set aggregate function is an aggregate function with a mandatory
 * Oracle-specific WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY ..) clause. An example is
 * LISTAGG: 
 * SELECT   LISTAGG(TITLE, ', ')
 *          WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY TITLE)
 * FROM     T_BOOK
 * GROUP BY AUTHOR_ID
 *  The above function groups books by author and aggregates titles
 * into a concatenated string.
 * 
 * Ordered-set aggregate functions can be further converted into window functions
 * using the OVER(PARTITION BY ..) clause. For example: 
 * SELECT LISTAGG(TITLE, ', ')
 *        WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY TITLE)
 *        OVER (PARTITION BY AUTHOR_ID)
 * FROM   T_BOOK
 *
