Examples

SQL
-- sum up all odd numbers from 1 through 10
> BEGIN
DECLARE sum INT DEFAULT 0;
DECLARE num INT DEFAULT 0;
sumNumbers: REPEAT
SET num = num + 1;
IF num % 2 = 0 THEN
ITERATE sumNumbers;
END IF;
SET sum = sum + num;
UNTIL num = 10
END REPEAT sumNumbers;
VALUES (sum);
END;

> SELECT sum(num) FROM range(1, 10) AS t(num) WHERE num % 2 = 1;
