numeric_precision_radix cardinal_number
This column indicates in which base the values in the columns numeric_precision and numeric_scale are expressed. The value is either 2 or 10.
numeric_scale cardinal_number
This column contains the (declared or implicit) scale of the sequence data type (see above). The scale indicates the number of significant digits to the right of the decimal point. It can be expressed in decimal (base 10) or binary (base 2) terms, as specified in the column numeric_precision_radix.
start_value character_data
The start value of the sequence
minimum_value character_data
The minimum value of the sequence
maximum_value character_data
The maximum value of the sequence
increment character_data
