        This method is used for an ORM use case described at
        :ref:`relationship_custom_operator_sql_function`.

        A hypothetical SQL function "is_equal()" which compares to values
        for equality would be written in the Core expression language as::

            expr = func.is_equal("a", "b")

        If "is_equal()" above is comparing "a" and "b" for equality, the
        :meth:`.FunctionElement.as_comparison` method would be invoked as::

            expr = func.is_equal("a", "b").as_comparison(1, 2)

        Where above, the integer value "1" refers to the first argument of the
        "is_equal()" function and the integer value "2" refers to the second.

        This would create a :class:`.BinaryExpression` that is equivalent to::

            BinaryExpression("a", "b", operator=op.eq)

        However, at the SQL level it would still render as
        "is_equal('a', 'b')".

        The ORM, when it loads a related object or collection, needs to be able
        to manipulate the "left" and "right" sides of the ON clause of a JOIN
        expression. The purpose of this method is to provide a SQL function
        construct that can also supply this information to the ORM, when used
        with the :paramref:`_orm.relationship.primaryjoin` parameter. The
        return value is a containment object called :class:`.FunctionAsBinary`.

        An ORM example is as follows::

            class Venue(Base):
                __tablename__ = "venue"
                id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
                name = Column(String)

                descendants = relationship(
                    "Venue",
                    primaryjoin=func.instr(
                        remote(foreign(name)), name + "/"
                    ).as_comparison(1, 2)
                    == 1,
                    viewonly=True,
                    order_by=name,
                )

        Above, the "Venue" class can load descendant "Venue" objects by
        determining if the name of the parent Venue is contained within the
        start of the hypothetical descendant value's name, e.g. "parent1" would
        match up to "parent1/child1", but not to "parent2/child1".

        Possible use cases include the "materialized path" example given above,
        as well as making use of special SQL functions such as geometric
        functions to create join conditions.

        :param left_index: the integer 1-based index of the function argument
         that serves as the "left" side of the expression.
        :param right_index: the integer 1-based index of the function argument
         that serves as the "right" side of the expression.

        .. tip::

            The :meth:`_functions.FunctionElement.alias` method is part of the
            mechanism by which "table valued" SQL functions are created.
            However, most use cases are covered by higher level methods on
            :class:`_functions.FunctionElement` including
            :meth:`_functions.FunctionElement.table_valued`, and
            :meth:`_functions.FunctionElement.column_valued`.

        This construct wraps the function in a named alias which
        is suitable for the FROM clause, in the style accepted for example
        by PostgreSQL.  A column expression is also provided using the
        special ``.column`` attribute, which may
        be used to refer to the output of the function as a scalar value
        in the columns or where clause, for a backend such as PostgreSQL.

        For a full table-valued expression, use the
        :meth:`_functions.FunctionElement.table_valued` method first to
        establish named columns.

        e.g.:

        .. sourcecode:: pycon+sql

            >>> from sqlalchemy import func, select, column
            >>> data_view = func.unnest([1, 2, 3]).alias("data_view")
            >>> print(select(data_view.column))
            {printsql}SELECT data_view
            FROM unnest(:unnest_1) AS data_view

        The :meth:`_functions.FunctionElement.column_valued` method provides
        a shortcut for the above pattern:

        .. sourcecode:: pycon+sql

            >>> data_view = func.unnest([1, 2, 3]).column_valued("data_view")
            >>> print(select(data_view))
            {printsql}SELECT data_view
            FROM unnest(:unnest_1) AS data_view

        .. versionadded:: 1.4.0b2  Added the ``.column`` accessor

        :param name: alias name, will be rendered as ``AS <name>`` in the
         FROM clause

        :param joins_implicitly: when True, the table valued function may be
         used in the FROM clause without any explicit JOIN to other tables
         in the SQL query, and no "cartesian product" warning will be
         generated.  May be useful for SQL functions such as
         ``func.json_each()``.

    :data:`.func` is a special object instance which generates SQL
    functions based on name-based attributes, e.g.:

    .. sourcecode:: pycon+sql

        >>> print(func.count(1))
        {printsql}count(:param_1)

    The returned object is an instance of :class:`.Function`, and  is a
    column-oriented SQL element like any other, and is used in that way:

    .. sourcecode:: pycon+sql

        >>> print(select(func.count(table.c.id)))
        {printsql}SELECT count(sometable.id) FROM sometable

    Any name can be given to :data:`.func`. If the function name is unknown to
    SQLAlchemy, it will be rendered exactly as is. For common SQL functions
    which SQLAlchemy is aware of, the name may be interpreted as a *generic
    function* which will be compiled appropriately to the target database:

    .. sourcecode:: pycon+sql

        >>> print(func.current_timestamp())
        {printsql}CURRENT_TIMESTAMP

    To call functions which are present in dot-separated packages,
    specify them in the same manner:

    .. sourcecode:: pycon+sql

        >>> print(func.stats.yield_curve(5, 10))
        {printsql}stats.yield_curve(:yield_curve_1, :yield_curve_2)

    SQLAlchemy can be made aware of the return type of functions to enable
    type-specific lexical and result-based behavior. For example, to ensure
    that a string-based function returns a Unicode value and is similarly
    treated as a string in expressions, specify
    :class:`~sqlalchemy.types.Unicode` as the type:

    .. sourcecode:: pycon+sql

        >>> print(
        ...     func.my_string("hi", type_=Unicode)
        ...     + " "
        ...     + func.my_string("there", type_=Unicode)
        ... )
        {printsql}my_string(:my_string_1) || :my_string_2 || my_string(:my_string_3)

    The object returned by a :data:`.func` call is usually an instance of
    :class:`.Function`.
    This object meets the "column" interface, including comparison and labeling
    functions.  The object can also be passed the :meth:`~.Connectable.execute`
    method of a :class:`_engine.Connection` or :class:`_engine.Engine`,
    where it will be
    wrapped inside of a SELECT statement first::

        print(connection.execute(func.current_timestamp()).scalar())

    In a few exception cases, the :data:`.func` accessor
    will redirect a name to a built-in expression such as :func:`.cast`
    or :func:`.extract`, as these names have well-known meaning
    but are not exactly the same as "functions" from a SQLAlchemy
    perspective.

    Functions which are interpreted as "generic" functions know how to
    calculate their return type automatically. For a listing of known generic
    functions, see :ref:`generic_functions`.

    .. note::

        The :data:`.func` construct has only limited support for calling
        standalone "stored procedures", especially those with special
        parameterization concerns.

        See the section :ref:`stored_procedures` for details on how to use
        the DBAPI-level ``callproc()`` method for fully traditional stored
        procedures.

class GenericFunction(Function[_T]):
    """Define a 'generic' function.

    A generic function is a pre-established :class:`.Function`
    class that is instantiated automatically when called
    by name from the :data:`.func` attribute.    Note that
    calling any name from :data:`.func` has the effect that
    a new :class:`.Function` instance is created automatically,
    given that name.  The primary use case for defining
    a :class:`.GenericFunction` class is so that a function
    of a particular name may be given a fixed return type.
    It can also include custom argument parsing schemes as well
    as additional methods.

    Subclasses of :class:`.GenericFunction` are automatically
    registered under the name of the class.  For
    example, a user-defined function ``as_utc()`` would
    be available immediately::

        from sqlalchemy.sql.functions import GenericFunction
        from sqlalchemy.types import DateTime


        class as_utc(GenericFunction):
            type = DateTime()
            inherit_cache = True


        print(select(func.as_utc()))

    User-defined generic functions can be organized into
    packages by specifying the "package" attribute when defining
    :class:`.GenericFunction`.   Third party libraries
    containing many functions may want to use this in order
    to avoid name conflicts with other systems.   For example,
    if our ``as_utc()`` function were part of a package
    "time"::

        class as_utc(GenericFunction):
            type = DateTime()
            package = "time"
            inherit_cache = True

    The above function would be available from :data:`.func`
    using the package name ``time``::

        print(select(func.time.as_utc()))

    A final option is to allow the function to be accessed
    from one name in :data:`.func` but to render as a different name.
    The ``identifier`` attribute will override the name used to
    access the function as loaded from :data:`.func`, but will retain
    the usage of ``name`` as the rendered name::

        class GeoBuffer(GenericFunction):
            type = Geometry()
            package = "geo"
            name = "ST_Buffer"
            identifier = "buffer"
            inherit_cache = True

    The above function will render as follows:

    .. sourcecode:: pycon+sql

        >>> print(func.geo.buffer())
        {printsql}ST_Buffer()

    The name will be rendered as is, however without quoting unless the name
    contains special characters that require quoting.  To force quoting
    on or off for the name, use the :class:`.sqlalchemy.sql.quoted_name`
    construct::

        from sqlalchemy.sql import quoted_name


        class GeoBuffer(GenericFunction):
            type = Geometry()
            package = "geo"
            name = quoted_name("ST_Buffer", True)
            identifier = "buffer"
            inherit_cache = True

    The above function will render as:

    .. sourcecode:: pycon+sql

        >>> print(func.geo.buffer())
        {printsql}"ST_Buffer"()

    Type parameters for this class as a
    `generic type <https://peps.python.org/pep-0484/#generics>`_ can be passed
    and should match the type seen in a :class:`_engine.Result`. For example::

        class as_utc(GenericFunction[datetime.datetime]):
            type = DateTime()
            inherit_cache = True

    The above indicates that the following expression returns a ``datetime``
    object::

        connection.scalar(select(func.as_utc()))

    .. versionadded:: 1.3.13  The :class:`.quoted_name` construct is now
       recognized for quoting when used with the "name" attribute of the
       object, so that quoting can be forced on or off for the function
       name.
