Erm, I'm pretty confident Tom knows exactly what it does. It's not
exactly complicated and, really, it is *terrible*. Additionally, you
wouldn't need the casts if you were doing it the way Tom suggested and
it'd be about a billion times cleaner and faster. I would suggest you
read up on PostgreSQL arrays, how they work, and the operations
available on them, before attempting to do any more with them.
Thanks,
Stephen
