/**
* Drill expression materialization and evaluation facilities.
*
* Drill exposes an interface for defining custom scalar and aggregate functions.
* These functions are found by scanning the classpath at runtime and allow users
* to add their own functions without rebuilding Drill or changing cluster
* configuration.
*
* The classes that define these functions are actually decomposed at the source
* level, copied into generated code blocks to evaluate an entire expression
* tree. This generated source is built at run-time as schema is discovered.
*
* This package contains the {@link DrillSimpleFunc} and {@link DrillAggFunc}
* interfaces that can be implemented by users to define their own aggregate
* and scalar functions.
