当然，这个问题纯粹是假设性的，我还没有愚蠢到试图在 DBMS 中计算素数表。但问题仍然存在：有没有一种干净的方法来解决没有 的问题LATERAL？

正如你所看到的，我尝试了一个视图（不起作用），围绕这个视图的函数（也不起作用），这个函数中的一个临时表（njet），并调整了函数的属性。

下一步可能是一些触发黑客（但我真的非常讨厌触发器，主要是因为它们对于 DBMS 模式的严格性是不可见的）

您可以在目标列表中使用 SRF 功能，但应该有一些奇怪的极端情况。横向是最好的。

postgres=# select i, generate_series(1,i) X from generate_series(1,3) g(i);
 我 | X
---+---
 1 | 1
 2 | 1
 2 | 2
 3 | 1
 3 | 2
