SHOW STATISTICS lists used by the .
By default, CockroachDB on all indexed columns and up to 100 non-indexed columns, and automatically collects on the columns that prefix each index.
Synopsis

| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
table_name | The name of the table to view statistics for. |
opt_with_options | Control the behavior of SHOW STATISTICS with these options. |
Options
| Option | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
FORECAST | N/A | Display forecasted statistics along with the existing table statistics. |
Output
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
statistics_name | The name of the statistics. If __auto__, the statistics were created automatically. If __forecast__, the statistics are forecasted. |
column_names | The name of the columns on which the statistics were created. |
created | The timestamp when the statistics were created. |
row_count | The number of rows for which the statistics were computed. |
distinct_count | The number of distinct values for which the statistics were computed. |
null_count | The number of null values for which the statistics were computed. |
avg_size | The average size in bytes of the values of the columns for which the statistics were computed. |
histogram_id | The ID of the used to compute statistics. |

Setup
The following examples use MovR, a fictional vehicle-sharing application, to demonstrate CockroachDB SQL statements. For more information about the MovR example application and dataset, see . To follow along, run to start a temporary, in-memory cluster with themovr dataset preloaded:

Display forecasted statistics
TheWITH FORECAST option calculates and displays forecasted statistics along with the existing table statistics. The forecast is a simple regression model that predicts how the statistics have changed since they were last collected. Forecasts that closely match the historical statistics are used by the .
CockroachDB generates forecasted statistics when the following conditions are met:
- There have been at least 3 historical statistics collections.
- The historical statistics closely fit a linear pattern.
