January 2025 monthly summary focused on quality improvements for aggregate functions in Caideyipi/iotdb. Implemented stricter argument-count validation and clearer user-facing error messages for first, first_by, last, and last_by aggregations. Updated validation logic in TableMetadataImpl.java and expanded IoTDBTableAggregationIT integration tests to verify improved feedback for incorrect argument counts. The changes are recorded under commit 49a91ecd34829d8305e030d95b4dae12d73a06f1 with the message "Add more user-friendly error messages for the last and last_by aggregation". This work delivers business value by reducing user confusion, accelerating debugging, and increasing reliability of aggregation features.
