在MemSQL中执行以下操作:

-- DROP FUNCTION IF EXISTS InlineMax;
DELIMITER //
CREATE FUNCTION InlineMax(val1 INT, val2 INT) RETURNS INT AS
DECLARE
  val3 INT = 0;
BEGIN
 IF val1 > val2 THEN
   RETURN val1;
 ELSE
   RETURN val2;
 END IF; 
END //
DELIMITER ;

SELECT InlineMax(1,2) as test;

其实很简单:

CREATE FUNCTION InlineMax
(
    @p1 sql_variant,
    @p2 sql_variant
)  RETURNS sql_variant
AS
BEGIN
    RETURN CASE 
        WHEN @p1 IS NULL AND @p2 IS NOT NULL THEN @p2 
        WHEN @p2 IS NULL AND @p1 IS NOT NULL THEN @p1
        WHEN @p1 > @p2 THEN @p1
        ELSE @p2 END
END;

我可能不会这样做，因为它比前面提到的CASE结构效率更低——除非您为两个查询都有覆盖索引。不管怎样，对于类似的问题，这都是一个有用的技巧:

SELECT OrderId, MAX(Price) as Price FROM (
   SELECT o.OrderId, o.NegotiatedPrice as Price FROM Order o
   UNION ALL
   SELECT o.OrderId, o.SuggestedPrice as Price FROM Order o
) as A
GROUP BY OrderId

以下是@Scott Langham用简单的NULL处理给出的答案:

SELECT
      o.OrderId,
      CASE WHEN (o.NegotiatedPrice > o.SuggestedPrice OR o.SuggestedPrice IS NULL) 
         THEN o.NegotiatedPrice 
         ELSE o.SuggestedPrice
      END As MaxPrice
FROM Order o

CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[fnMax] (@p1 INT, @p2 INT)
RETURNS INT
AS BEGIN

    DECLARE @Result INT

    SET @p2 = COALESCE(@p2, @p1)

    SELECT
        @Result = (
                   SELECT
                    CASE WHEN @p1 > @p2 THEN @p1
                         ELSE @p2
                    END
                  )

    RETURN @Result

END

SELECT o.OrderID
CASE WHEN o.NegotiatedPrice > o.SuggestedPrice THEN
 o.NegotiatedPrice
ELSE
 o.SuggestedPrice
END AS Price
