    value - the value
    
    Returns:
    
    the expression
  - getValue
```
public Value getValue(Session session)

    Returns:
    
    the result

    getType in class Expression
    
    Returns:
    
    the type
  - createIndexConditions

  - updateAggregate
```
public void updateAggregate(Session session)
```
    Description copied from class: Expression
    
    Update an aggregate value. This method is called at statement execution time. It is usually called once for each row, but if the expression is used multiple times (for example in the column list, and as part of the HAVING expression) it is called multiple times - the row counter needs to be used to make sure the internal state is only updated once.
    
    Specified by:
    
    updateAggregate in class Expression
    
    Parameters:
    
    session - the session
  - isEverything

    Description copied from class: Expression
    
    Check if this expression and all sub-expressions can fulfill a criteria. If any part returns false, the result is false.
    
    Specified by:
    
    isEverything in class Expression
    
    Parameters:
    
    visitor - the visitor

    if the criteria can be fulfilled
  - getCost
```
public int getCost()

    Description copied from class: Expression
    
    Estimate the cost to process the expression. Used when optimizing the query, to calculate the query plan with the lowest estimated cost.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getCost in class Expression
    
    Returns:
    
    the estimated cost
  - getExpressionColumns

```
    Description copied from class: Expression
    
    If this expression consists of column expressions it should return them.
