 The following table lists currently supported types and their short and explicit representations.
 
-| **Type Name** | **Short Repr** | **[Type Code, Args...]** | **Description** |
-| `Numeric` | `number`* | `['n',number]` | double-precision floating point number |
-| `Text` | `string`* | `['s',string]` | Unicode string |
-| `Bool` | `bool`* | `['b',bool]` | Boolean value (true or false) |
-| `Null` | `null`* | `null` | Null value (no special explicit representation) |
-| `Int` | `number` | `['i',number]` | 32-bit integer |
-| `Date` | `number` | `['d',number]` | Calendar date, represented as seconds since Epoch to 00:00 UTC on that date. |
-| `DateTime` | `number` | `['D',number]` | Instance in time, represented as seconds since Epoch |
-| `Reference` | `number` | `['R',number]`  | Identifier of a record in a table. |
-| `ReferenceList` | | `['L',number,...]` | List of record identifiers |
-| `Choice` | `string` | `['C',string]` | Unicode string selected from a list of choices. |
-| `PositionNumber` | `number` | `['P',number]` | a double used to order records relative to each other. |
-| `Image` | | `['I',string]` | Binary data representing an image, encoded as base64 |
-| `List` | | `['l',values,...]` | List of values of any type. |

 An important goal is to represent data efficiently in the common case. When a value matches the column's type, the short representation is used. For example, in a Numeric column, a Numeric value is represented as a `number`, and in a Date column, a Date value is represented as a `number`.
