it.

> Suppose we have a relation with 3 columns: {{(a, '1', '2')}}. The first
> column comes from an underlying table, while the other two columns are
> constants.
> For this relation, we should have {{NDV(1) = 1}}, since column 1 is a
> constant, which have only one possible value (suppose the column index starts
> from 0).
> Similarly, we should have {{NDV(1, 2) = 1}}, since both columns are constants.
> We should also have {{NDV(0, 1) == NDV(0)}}, because the number of distinct
> values depends on the non-const column, which is {{a}} from the underlying
> table.
