I need to do a join with a table/result-set/whatever that has the integers n to m inclusive. Is there a trivial way to get that without just building the table?
(BTW what would that type of construct be called, a ‘Meta query‘?)
m-n is bounded to something reasonable ( < 1000’s)
There is no sequence number generator (CREATE SEQUENCE) in MySQL. Closest thing is
AUTO_INCREMENT, which can help you construct the table.
