Running sums using window function SQL

A window function is like an aggregate function, except that it gives an output for every row in the dataset instead of a single row per group.

You can do aggregation along with window functions. A running sum using a window function is simpler than what is required using joins. The query duration can also be much faster.

A table called schedule, having columns train_id, station, time, and diff_min is provided for you. The diff_min column gives the elapsed time between the current station and the next station on the line.
