/*

** CAPI3REF: Prepared Statement Object

** KEYWORDS: {prepared statement} {prepared statements}

**

** An instance of this object represents a single SQL statement that

** has been compiled into binary form and is ready to be evaluated.

**

** Think of each SQL statement as a separate computer program.  The

** original SQL text is source code.  A prepared statement object 

** is the compiled object code.  All SQL must be converted into a

** prepared statement before it can be run.

**

** The life-cycle of a prepared statement object usually goes like this:

**

**

**

1. Create the prepared statement object using [sqlite3_prepare_v2()].

   **

2. Bind values to [parameters] using the sqlite3_bind_*()

   **      interfaces.

   **

3. Run the SQL by calling [sqlite3_step()] one or more times.

   **

4. Reset the prepared statement using [sqlite3_reset()] then go back

   **      to step 2.  Do this zero or more times.

   **

5. Destroy the object using [sqlite3_finalize()].

   **
