Returns the intercept of the univariate linear regression line in a group where xExpr and yExpr are NOT NULL.

Syntax

regr_intercept( [ALL | DISTINCT] yExpr, xExpr) [FILTER ( WHERE cond ) ]

This function can also be invoked as a window function using the OVER clause.

Arguments

  • yExpr: A numeric expression, the dependent variable.
  • xExpr: A numeric expression, the independent variable.
