In the documentation for ClickHouse's aggregate functions we make a distinction between arguments and parameters (see for example exponentialMovingAverage) however for regular functions we use arguments in some cases and parameters in others.

For instance:

The usage of both is scattered around the docs. While the terms are probably interchangeable in this context I think we should be consistent in our formatting choices.

To do:

  • decide on a convention.
  • search through the docs and generate a list of all 'incorrect' usages.
  • make the change to those functions.

  • Arguments for all ordinary functions
  • When function is parametrized like percentile we call parameters this additional part that changes function behavior, but can't have column as input.
