Generates an array of elements from start to stop (inclusive), incrementing by step.

Syntax

sequence(start, stop [, step] )

Arguments

  • start: An expression of an integral numeric type, DATE, or TIMESTAMP.
  • stop: If start is numeric an integral numeric, a DATE or TIMESTAMP otherwise.
  • step: An INTERVAL expression if start is a DATE or TIMESTAMP, or an integral numeric otherwise.

Returns

An ARRAY of least common type of start and stop.

By default step is 1 if start is less than or equal to stop, otherwise -1.

For the DATE or TIMESTAMP sequences default step is INTERVAL ‘1’ DAY and INTERVAL ‘-1’ DAY respectively.

If start is greater than stop then step must be negative, and vice versa.
