Description

Using REGR_AVGX and REGR_AVGY with timestamp and 0 doesn’t throw an exception but returns an interval

Example

create or replace table t(ts timestamp(0));
insert into t values timestamp'2024-01-01 00:00:00';

-- Expected: exception - REGR_AVGX does not support timestamp as argument type
-- Observed: +000000000 00:00:00.000000000
select regr_avgx(ts, 0) from t;

-- Expected: exception - REGR_AVGY does not support timestamp as argument type
-- Observed: +000000000 00:00:00.000000000
select regr_avgy(0, ts) from t;

Fix

The query throws the following syntax exception: REGR_AVGY does not support timestamp as argument type

Changed behavior
