K-means clustering using native functions

Hi,=0A=
=0A=
I'm new working with the mysql code and have couple of questions I hope the=
 members of this mailing list can help me to answer.=0A=
=0A=
I would like to implement a k-mean clustering function in mysql using the n=
ative functions in mysql. In order to assign an element/tuple to a cluster,=
 I need to do some pre-computations using all the tuples in a given table. =
I know that due to the atomicity property, this is probably very hard to ac=
hieve using native functions. =0A=
=0A=
So, my question is, is it possible to access/read all the tuples in a table=
 from a native function? If the answer is yes, can you point me to a curren=
t function that does this (I haven't found any so far). If the answer is no=
, could you recommend another right way of doing this? =0A=
=0A=
Thanks for your kind reply,=0A=
