Blew that one as did someone before me.
Learned a lot by reading your references - thanks for those.
If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something.

Looks like I am the first to get it right!
Makes a change.
I am normally the last person to get it wrong.
Nice question, with lots of interesting articles.

Going to stick my neck out and say that its wrong.
Yes the stream aggregate gets called first... but it hasnt finished. So is the important part which gets called first or which gets finished first? Personally i think its the part that gets finished first thats important (or more precisly the thing that performs its purpose first). I cant say a function has been executed when it hasnt actually done anything.
Could be a language thing though that i put a different meaning into "executes" then everyone else

The learning point today was about execution order (hence the title). Query plans are pipelines, and the intention was to highlight something that most people misunderstand about that. I'm sorry the way I phrased it differs from your intuitive understanding of 'executes', if I could give you your two points, I would. That's not to say that I agree with you (I don't) but points are free, and I like people to be happy

Great question, Paul, and great explanation.
Looks like you tricked most of us (myself included).

Thanks, but I want to say that I really really really didn't set out to trick anyone with this. It was intended as a follow-on question to my previous one (
Table Access Order
) but the scheduling meant they came much further apart in time than I intended. The formatting also got messed up in the explanation, but hey ho. Hopefully there's enough value in the learning point that I get away with it.

Nice one. I got it right - yay! - though I had to spend 20 minutes reading up (sorry work) first, as I was determined to get it right.
I think the setter was quite correct. If he had said which FINISHES executing first that would be a different matter.
