Parameters
dependent-expression The variable that is affected by the independent variable.

This function converts its arguments to DOUBLE, performs the computation in double-precision floating point, and returns a DOUBLE as the result. If the function is applied to an empty set, then it returns NULL. The function is applied to the set of (dependent-expression and independent-expression) pairs after eliminating all pairs for which either dependent-expression or independent-expression is NULL. The function is computed simultaneously during a single pass through the data. After eliminating NULL values, the following computation is then made, where x represents the dependent-expression:
AVG( x )

The following example calculates the average of the independent variable, employee salary.

With a GROUP BY clause:
SELECT REGR_AVGY()( Salary, ( 2008 - YEAR( BirthDate ) ) ) 
FROM Employees
group by depart_ID
With a window:
SELECT REGR_AVGY()( Salary, ( 2008 - YEAR( BirthDate ) ) ) 
FROM Employees
KEEP 10 ROWS
