-----------------------------------------------------------------

One of the Hive descriptions is wrong here.

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+UDF states 
regr_avgx(y, x) is "Equivalent to avg(dependent)."

https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/rel/release-3.1.3/ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/udf/generic/GenericUDAFBinarySetFunctions.java#L163
 states "evaluates the average of the independent variable".


was (Author: JIRAUSER288956):
The description is wrong here. regr_avgx(y, x) computes the average of the 
*dependent* state according to the Hive docs. regr_avgy would be the 
independent state.
