You are looking to employ modern concepts of programming in
in sql. It is like expecting to find a copy of the New York Times
among the dinosaurs in the Jurassic period. This is a totally
unrealistic expectation. Sql is fine for plodding thru mountains
of data, that is what it was designed for. It is not for things
that require agility and specificity, in other words it is a
poor language for application development. It is quite foolish
to request a dinasour when what you really want is a bird.
You will find an example of the type of function your looking
for within a database system here:

Sql mavens can take heart that IT will treat then better than
history treated the dinosaur :)
