Example for function having return type set of record

create function testfunc(int) returns record as '
declare
        output record;
begin
        for output in select * from table1 where col1<$1 loop
        return next output;
        end loop;
return;
end;
' language plpgsql

executing through sql as:

select * from testfunc(6) as (col1 int, col2 float, col3 char(20));
