Uh, the first query shows an _estimate_ of rows=1, which does not match
the actual rows=100:

Seq Scan on t  (cost=0.00..195.00 rows=1 width=8) (actual rows=100 
loops=1)

The second query has it right:

Seq Scan on t  (cost=0.00..195.00 rows=100 width=8) (actual rows=100 
loops=1)

Hi All, 

I'm a little confused by the documentation here: 
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/10/static/multivariate-statistics-examples.html.


In particular, the selectivity of the second query doesn't seem to match up
with what is expected in the notes. I feel like I may be missing something?

TIMING OFF) SELECT * FROM t WHERE a = 1 AND b = 1;)
