I have 7 integer values (with 3,1,3,4,4,5,4 digits respectively), and I have to combine them into a single integer (i.e. a 24-digit number). I tried to do it like this
create or replace function gen_id(int,int,int,int,int,int,int) returns bigint as $$
declare
id bigint;
begin
id = $1 * 1000000000000000000000 + $2 * 100000000000000000000 + $3 * 100000000000000000 + $4 * 10000000000000 + $5 * 1000000000 + $6 * 10000 + $7;
return id;
end;
$$ language plpgsql;
select * from gen_id(100,1,101,1000,1001,10001,1000);
But when I execute it, I get the error: bigint is out of range. Is there any other better way to do this?
thank
