+ This chapter builds on the material covered in <a class="xref" href="using-explain.html" title="14.1. Using EXPLAIN">Section 14.1</a> and <a class="xref" href="planner-stats.html" title="14.2. Statistics Used by the Planner">Section 14.2</a> to show some
+ additional details about how the planner uses the
+ system statistics to estimate the number of rows each part of a query might
+ return. This is a significant part of the planning process,
+ providing much of the raw material for cost calculation.
+ </p><p>
+ The intent of this chapter is not to document the code in detail,
+ but to present an overview of how it works.
+ This will perhaps ease the learning curve for someone who subsequently
+ wishes to read the code.
