PSQL: Sets With The Values Command

You can concisely create sets of values in PostgreSQL using the values command.

> values (1), (2), (3);
 column1
---------
       1
       2
       3

You can even create multiple columns of values.

> values (1, 'a', true), (2, 'b', false);
 column1 | column2 | column3
---------+---------+---------
       1 | a       | t
       2 | b       | f

This is most often used with an insert command, but can be used on its own, as a subquery, within a CTE, etc.
