INCREMENT BY Option

Use the INCREMENT BY option to specify the interval between successive numbers in the sequence. The BY keyword is optional. The interval, or step value, can be a positive whole number (for an ascending sequence) or a negative whole number (for a descending sequence) in the INT8 range. If you do not specify any step value, the default interval between successive generated values is 1, and the sequence is an ascending sequence.
