Thank you so much @Adez017 -- this is looking great

Given the title of this post is about user defined window functions, there is not very much discussion about that topic -- most of the content is about window functions in general

Perhaps you can structure the post so that it

  1. Introduces window functions in general and what they do (you have most of this content already)
  2. Walks through an example of creating a user defined window functions in a bit more detail (I think you can borrow / copy liberally from https://datafusion.apache.org/library-user-guide/adding-udfs.html#registering-a-window-udf)

What do you think?

And thanks again for starting this post

Thank you very much @Adez017

I took another pass through this post and did

  1. some small wordsmithing and formatting tweaks.
  2. Added a section on how window functions are implemented
  3. Updated the date

I just pushed the commits directly to your branch to hopefully reduce the back and forth

I think this blog is now ready to publish, but it would be great if you had a chance to review it again. I will also send a note to the mailing list and slack/discord,
