<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>Methods to allow querying a database.
All methods accepts a <code>query : String</code> and a set arguments.</p>
<p>Three kind of statements can be performed:</p>
<ol><li><code><a href="../DB/QueryMethods.html#exec%28query%2C%2Aargs%29-instance-method">#exec</a></code> waits no record response from the database. An <code><a href="../DB/ExecResult.html">ExecResult</a></code> is returned.</li><li><code><a href="../DB/QueryMethods.html#scalar%28query%2C%2Aargs%29-instance-method">#scalar</a></code> reads a single value of the response. A union of possible values is returned.</li><li><code><a href="../DB/QueryMethods.html#query%28query%2C%2Aargs%29-instance-method">#query</a></code> returns a <code><a href="../DB/ResultSet.html">ResultSet</a></code> that allows iteration over the rows in the response and column information.</li></ol>
<p>Arguments can be passed by position</p>
<pre><code>db.query(<span class="s">&quot;SELECT name FROM ... WHERE age &gt; ?&quot;</span>, age)</code></pre>
<p>Convention of mapping how arguments are mapped to the query depends on each driver.</p>
<p>Including <code><a href="../DB/QueryMethods.html">QueryMethods</a></code> requires a <code>build(query) : <a href="../DB/Statement.html">Statement</a></code> method that is not expected
to be called directly.</p>
