>   This section contains a very simple example of SPI usage. The
   procedure <CODE
CLASS="FUNCTION"
>execq</CODE
> takes an SQL command as its
   first argument and a row count as its second, executes the command
   using <CODE
CLASS="FUNCTION"
>SPI_exec</CODE
> and returns the number of rows
   that were processed by the command.  You can find more complex
   examples for SPI in the source tree in
   <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>src/test/regress/regress.c</TT
> and in the
   <A
HREF="contrib-spi.html"
>spi</A
> module.
