[MonetDB-users] Stored procedures

Hi,

is it possible to achieve the following using SQL stored procedures à la "CREATE PROCEDURE XYZ"? I want to write a function that iterates over a table and adds 2 on a certain attribute. i am realizing that i could do this by an UPDATE, but I wanted to see, whether it would be executed more parallel inside a stored procedure. Is there a way of formulating this in a procedure? do i need to define a function in MAL? would this result in more parallel execution?

thanks, michael
