may be greater than xmax
When calculating upper and lower bounds for `geometry` and `geography`, null
or NaN values in a coordinate dimension are skipped; for example, POINT (1 NaN)
contributes a value to X but no values to Y, Z, or M dimension bounds. If a
dimension has only null or NaN values, that dimension is omitted from the
bounding box. If either the X or Y dimension is missing then the bounding box
itself is not produced.
+##### Content Stats
+
+Iceberg v4 introduces content stats which represent stats in a
`struct<struct<...>>`. The statistics for fields are tracked inside a nested
struct of value counts and bounds (described in the next section). Each
field-level statistics struct is a field of the `content_stats` struct, which
holds all statistics for table fields.
+
+###### ID assignment for stats fields
+
+ID assignment follows a deterministic transform that maps from the **table ID
space** to the **metadata ID space**. For a given field ID from the **table ID
space** each nested stats struct gets an ID assigned from the **metadata ID
space**.
+The offset defined in the [field stats types section](#field-stats-types) is
added to the stats ID of the enclosing stats struct to calculate IDs for each
individual field stats type.
+
+**Data columns (normal table field ids)**
+
+Let `table_field_id` be the column's id in the table schema. Allocate a
contiguous block of **200** ids per column (`num_supported_stats_per_column =
200`). The stats struct for that column starts at:
+
+`stats_struct_id = 10_000 + (200 * table_field_id)`
+
+Each field statistic listed under [Field stats types](#field-stats-types) has
a fixed **offset** within that block. The field id for an individual field
statistic is:
+
+`stats_field_id = stats_struct_id + offset`
+
+The constant `10_000` is `stats_space_field_id_start_for_data_fields`. The
value **200** is both the width of each column's stats block and
`num_reserved_field_ids` from [Reserved field ids](#reserved-field-ids).
+
+**Reserved table field ids.**
+
+Columns whose ids fall in the [reserved field ID](#reserved-field-ids) space
use a different base so their stats ids do not overlap data columns:
+
+`stats_struct_id = 2_147_000_000 + (200 * (200 - (Integer.MAX_VALUE -
table_field_id)))`
+
+Here `2_147_000_000` is `stats_space_field_id_start_for_metadata_fields`. This
separate base is required because reserved ids are near `Integer.MAX_VALUE` and
cannot use the same linear mapping as data field ids.
+
+Valid data field ids support stats structs with ids from `10_000` through
`200_010_000`, so the highest supported **data** field id is `1_000_000`.
+
+###### Name assignment for `content_stats` fields
+
+Each nested stats struct is a **child field** of the root `content_stats`
struct. Its **name** is the numerical string of the table column's field id
(for example id `103` uses the name `"103"`).
+Its **field id** is deterministically calculated as defined in the previous
section.
+
+###### Field stats types
+
+Each stats struct holds statistics for one table column. It may contain the
following metrics:
+
+| required/optional | Offset | Name | Type |
Description
|
+|-------------------|--------|-------------------------|---------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
+| _optional_ | 1 | value_count | `long` |
Number of values in the column (including null and NaN values)
|
+| _optional_ | 2 | null_value_count | `long` |
Number of null values in the column. Only included for optional columns
|
+| _optional_ | 3 | nan_value_count | `long` |
Number of NaN values in the column. Only included for float/double types. NaN
rules follow note 2 under [Data File Fields](#data-file-fields)
|
+| _optional_ | 4 | avg_value_size_in_bytes | `int` |
Avg stored (compressed, encoded) value size in bytes for variable-length types
(`string` / `binary`)
|
+| _optional_ | 5 | max_value_size_in_bytes | `int` |
Max stored (compressed, encoded) value size in bytes for variable-length types
(`string` / `binary`)
|
+| _optional_ | 6 | lower_bound | type of table field |
Lower bound serialized as the column's type. Bounds follow rules defined in
[Bounds for Variant, Geometry, and
Geography](#bounds-for-variant-geometry-and-geography)
|
+| _optional_ | 7 | upper_bound | type of table field |
Upper bound serialized as the column's type. Bounds follow rules defined in
[Bounds for Variant, Geometry, and
Geography](#bounds-for-variant-geometry-and-geography)
|
+| _optional_ | 8 | exact_bounds | `boolean` |
Whether the `lower_bound` / `upper_bound` are exact (`true`) or may be
truncated or otherwise inexact (`false`). Defaults to `true`. Types such as
`string` / `binary` often use `false` when bounds are truncated. For types with
inherently exact bounds when written (for example boolean, integer,
floating-point, date, time, timestamp, decimal, uuid, `geometry`, `geography`),
writers should use `true` when bounds are present. If a deletion vector or
equality delete file can match rows in the data file, implementations must
treat bounds as inexact for pruning (`exact_bounds` as `false`) |
+
+###### Stats projection
+
+To retrieve stats for a particular table field ID, one would always project by
stats ID, where the stats ID for a given table field ID can be calculated by
applying the reverse calculation.
+For data columns the reverse calculation would be:
+
+`table_field_id = (stats_struct_id - 10_000) / 200`
+
+For [reserved field IDs](#reserved-field-ids), the reverse calculation would
be:
+
+`table_field_id = stats_struct_id - num_reserved_field_ids +
(Integer.MAX_VALUE - stats_struct_id) + (stats_struct_id -
stats_space_field_id_start_for_metadata_fields) /
num_supported_stats_per_column`
Review Comment:
`2_147_483_447` refers to a single field id from the reserved field id
space, so I would still like to keep a variable here instead of a hard-coded
value
