# numbers
|
||
|
||
`numbers(N)` – Returns a table with the single 'number' column (UInt64) that contains integers from 0 to N-1.
|
||
`numbers(N, M)` - Returns a table with the single 'number' column (UInt64) that contains integers from N to (N + M - 1).
|
||
|
||
Similar to the `system.numbers` table, it can be used for testing and generating successive values, `numbers(N, M)` more efficient than `system.numbers`.
|
||
|
||
The following queries are equivalent:
|
||
|
||
```sql
|
||
SELECT * FROM numbers(10);
|
||
SELECT * FROM numbers(0, 10);
|
||
SELECT * FROM system.numbers LIMIT 10;
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Examples:
|
||
|
||
```sql
|
||
-- Generate a sequence of dates from 2010-01-01 to 2010-12-31
|
||
select toDate('2010-01-01') + number as d FROM numbers(365);
|
||
```
