hi my requirement is to create a table as a result of sub-query and the table
and schema name should be passed as parameters of a function

i also tried like this;

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION secc_master.chkschema(schemaname text, tableis
text)
RETURNS void AS
$BODY$
DECLARE
ione boolean;

BEGIN

EXECUTE 'create table '||quote_literal($1)||'.'||quote_literal($2)||' as
select * from master.master_state where state_code not in ( select
distinct(statecode)from master.population_2 )';

end;
$BODY$
LANGUAGE plpgsql

select * from secc_master.chkschema('secc_master', 'chktbl')

ERROR: syntax error at or near "'secc_master'"
LINE 1: create table 'secc_master'.'chktbl' as select * from master...
