An optional time range can be given to select only a part of the series data. If no time range is provided SiriDB returns all the data available. As a time range we can use before, after or between .. and ..
When using after you basically set a start time, with before an end time
and when using between .. and .. you set both a start and end time.
Points that have the exact start time are included in the result, points
with the exact end time are excluded from the result.
Note
It’s safe to use now multiple times in a query. SiriDB only calculates now one time while processing a query. This way you can be sure that now has the same value.
