**
** This file demonstrates how to create a table-valued-function using
** a virtual table.  This demo implements the generate_series() function
** which gives the same results as the eponymous function in PostgreSQL,
** within the limitation that its arguments are signed 64-bit integers.
**
** Considering its equivalents to generate_series(start,stop,step): A
** value V[n] sequence is produced for integer n ascending from 0 where
**  ( V[n] == start + n * step  &&  sgn(V[n] - stop) * sgn(step) >= 0 )
** for each produced value (independent of production time ordering.)
**
** All parameters must be either integer or convertable to integer.
** The start parameter is required.
** The stop parameter defaults to (1<<32)-1 (aka 4294967295 or 0xffffffff)
** The step parameter defaults to 1 and 0 is treated as 1.
**
** Examples:
**
**      SELECT * FROM generate_series(0,100,5);
**
** The query above returns integers from 0 through 100 counting by steps
** of 5.  In other words, 0, 5, 10, 15, ..., 90, 95, 100.  There are a total
** of 21 rows.
**
**      SELECT * FROM generate_series(0,100);
**
** Integers from 0 through 100 with a step size of 1.  101 rows.
**
**      SELECT * FROM generate_series(20) LIMIT 10;
**
** Integers 20 through 29.  10 rows.
**
**      SELECT * FROM generate_series(0,-100,-5);
**
** Integers 0 -5 -10 ... -100.  21 rows.
**
**      SELECT * FROM generate_series(0,-1);
**
** Empty sequence.
**
** HOW IT WORKS
**
** The generate_series "function" is really a virtual table with the
** following schema:
**
**     CREATE TABLE generate_series(
**       value,
**       start HIDDEN,
**       stop HIDDEN,
**       step HIDDEN
**     );
**
** The virtual table also has a rowid which is an alias for the value.
**
** Function arguments in queries against this virtual table are translated
** into equality constraints against successive hidden columns.  In other
** words, the following pairs of queries are equivalent to each other:
**
**    SELECT * FROM generate_series(0,100,5);
**    SELECT * FROM generate_series WHERE start=0 AND stop=100 AND step=5;
**
**    SELECT * FROM generate_series(0,100);
**    SELECT * FROM generate_series WHERE start=0 AND stop=100;
**
**    SELECT * FROM generate_series(20) LIMIT 10;
**    SELECT * FROM generate_series WHERE start=20 LIMIT 10;
**
** The generate_series virtual table implementation leaves the xCreate method
** set to NULL.  This means that it is not possible to do a CREATE VIRTUAL
** TABLE command with "generate_series" as the USING argument.  Instead, there
** is a single generate_series virtual table that is always available without
** having to be created first.
**
** The xBestIndex method looks for equality constraints against the hidden
** start, stop, and step columns, and if present, it uses those constraints
** to bound the sequence of generated values.  If the equality constraints
** are missing, it uses 0 for start, 4294967295 for stop, and 1 for step.
** xBestIndex returns a small cost when both start and stop are available,
** and a very large cost if either start or stop are unavailable.  This
** encourages the query planner to order joins such that the bounds of the
** series are well-defined.
**
** Update on 2024-08-22:
** xBestIndex now also looks for equality and inequality constraints against
** the value column and uses those constraints as additional bounds against
** the sequence range.  Thus, a query like this:
**
**     SELECT value FROM generate_series($SA,$EA)
**      WHERE value BETWEEN $SB AND $EB;
**
** Is logically the same as:
**
**     SELECT value FROM generate_series(max($SA,$SB),min($EA,$EB));
**
** Constraints on the value column can server as substitutes for constraints
** on the hidden start and stop columns.  So, the following two queries
** are equivalent:
**
**     SELECT value FROM generate_series($S,$E);
**     SELECT value FROM generate_series WHERE value BETWEEN $S and $E;

#ifndef SQLITE_OMIT_VIRTUALTABLE

/* series_cursor is a subclass of sqlite3_vtab_cursor which will
** serve as the underlying representation of a cursor that scans
** over rows of the result.
**
** iOBase, iOTerm, and iOStep are the original values of the
** start=, stop=, and step= constraints on the query.  These are
** the values reported by the start, stop, and step columns of the
** virtual table.
**
** iBase, iTerm, iStep, and bDescp are the actual values used to generate
** the sequence.  These might be different from the iOxxxx values.
** For example in
**
**   SELECT value FROM generate_series(1,11,2)
**    WHERE value BETWEEN 4 AND 8;
**
** The iOBase is 1, but the iBase is 5.  iOTerm is 11 but iTerm is 7.
** Another example:
**
**   SELECT value FROM generate_series(1,15,3) ORDER BY value DESC;
**
** The cursor initialization for the above query is:
**
**   iOBase = 1        iBase = 13
**   iOTerm = 15       iTerm = 1
**   iOStep = 3        iStep = 3      bDesc = 1
**
** The actual step size is unsigned so that can have a value of
** +9223372036854775808 which is needed for querys like this:
**
**   SELECT value
**     FROM generate_series(9223372036854775807,
**                          -9223372036854775808,
**                          -9223372036854775808)
**    ORDER BY value ASC;
**
** The setup for the previous query will be:
**
**   iOBase = 9223372036854775807    iBase = -1
**   iOTerm = -9223372036854775808   iTerm = 9223372036854775807
**   iOStep = -9223372036854775808   iStep = 9223372036854775808  bDesc = 0

/*
** SQLite will invoke this method one or more times while planning a query
** that uses the generate_series virtual table.  This routine needs to create
** a query plan for each invocation and compute an estimated cost for that
** plan.
**
** In this implementation idxNum is used to represent the
** query plan.  idxStr is unused.
**
** The query plan is represented by bits in idxNum:
**
**   0x0001  start = $num
**   0x0002  stop = $num
**   0x0004  step = $num
**   0x0008  output is in descending order
**   0x0010  output is in ascending order
**   0x0020  LIMIT $num
**   0x0040  OFFSET $num
**   0x0080  value = $num
**   0x0100  value >= $num
**   0x0200  value > $num
**   0x1000  value <= $num
**   0x2000  value < $num
**
** Only one of 0x0100 or 0x0200 will be returned.  Similarly, only
** one of 0x1000 or 0x2000 will be returned.  If the 0x0080 is set, then
** none of the 0xff00 bits will be set.
**
** The order of parameters passed to xFilter is as follows:
**
**    * The argument to start= if bit 0x0001 is in the idxNum mask
**    * The argument to stop= if bit 0x0002 is in the idxNum mask
**    * The argument to step= if bit 0x0004 is in the idxNum mask
**    * The argument to LIMIT if bit 0x0020 is in the idxNum mask
**    * The argument to OFFSET if bit 0x0040 is in the idxNum mask
**    * The argument to value=, or value>= or value> if any of
**      bits 0x0380 are in the idxNum mask
**    * The argument to value<= or value< if either of bits 0x3000
**      are in the mask
