+      # <tt>:primary_key</tt>, <tt>:string</tt>, <tt>:text</tt>,
+      # <tt>:integer</tt>, <tt>:float</tt>, <tt>:decimal</tt>,
+      # <tt>:datetime</tt>, <tt>:timestamp</tt>, <tt>:time</tt>,
+      # <tt>:date</tt>, <tt>:binary</tt>, <tt>:boolean</tt>.
+      #
+      # You may use a type not in this list as long as it is supported by your
+      # database (for example, "polygon" in MySQL), but this will not be database
+      # agnostic and should usually be avoided.
+      #
+      # Available options are (none of these exists by default):
+      # * <tt>:limit</tt> -
+      #   Requests a maximum column length. This is number of characters for <tt>:string</tt> and
+      #   <tt>:text</tt> columns and number of bytes for :binary and :integer columns.
+      # * <tt>:default</tt> -
+      #   The column's default value. Use nil for NULL.
+      # * <tt>:null</tt> -
+      #   Allows or disallows +NULL+ values in the column. This option could
+      #   have been named <tt>:null_allowed</tt>.
+      # * <tt>:precision</tt> -
+      #   Specifies the precision for a <tt>:decimal</tt> column.
+      # * <tt>:scale</tt> -
+      #   Specifies the scale for a <tt>:decimal</tt> column.
+      #
+      # For clarity's sake: the precision is the number of significant digits,
+      # while the scale is the number of digits that can be stored following
+      # the decimal point. For example, the number 123.45 has a precision of 5
+      # and a scale of 2. A decimal with a precision of 5 and a scale of 2 can
+      # range from -999.99 to 999.99.
+      #
+      # Please be aware of different RDBMS implementations behavior with
+      # <tt>:decimal</tt> columns:
+      # * The SQL standard says the default scale should be 0, <tt>:scale</tt> <=
+      #   <tt>:precision</tt>, and makes no comments about the requirements of
+      #   <tt>:precision</tt>.
+      # * MySQL: <tt>:precision</tt> [1..63], <tt>:scale</tt> [0..30].
+      #   Default is (10,0).
+      # * PostgreSQL: <tt>:precision</tt> [1..infinity],
+      #   <tt>:scale</tt> [0..infinity]. No default.
+      # * SQLite2: Any <tt>:precision</tt> and <tt>:scale</tt> may be used.
+      #   Internal storage as strings. No default.
+      # * SQLite3: No restrictions on <tt>:precision</tt> and <tt>:scale</tt>,
+      #   but the maximum supported <tt>:precision</tt> is 16. No default.
+      # * Oracle: <tt>:precision</tt> [1..38], <tt>:scale</tt> [-84..127].
+      #   Default is (38,0).
+      # * DB2: <tt>:precision</tt> [1..63], <tt>:scale</tt> [0..62].
+      #   Default unknown.
+      # * Firebird: <tt>:precision</tt> [1..18], <tt>:scale</tt> [0..18].
+      #   Default (9,0). Internal types NUMERIC and DECIMAL have different
+      #   storage rules, decimal being better.
+      # * FrontBase?: <tt>:precision</tt> [1..38], <tt>:scale</tt> [0..38].
+      #   Default (38,0). WARNING Max <tt>:precision</tt>/<tt>:scale</tt> for

+      # * SqlServer?: <tt>:precision</tt> [1..38], <tt>:scale</tt> [0..38].

+      # == Examples
+      #  # Assuming td is an instance of TableDefinition
+      #  td.column(:granted, :boolean)
+      #  # granted BOOLEAN
+      #
+      #  td.column(:picture, :binary, :limit => 2.megabytes)
+      #  # => picture BLOB(2097152)
+      #
+      #  td.column(:sales_stage, :string, :limit => 20, :default => 'new', :null => false)
+      #  # => sales_stage VARCHAR(20) DEFAULT 'new' NOT NULL
+      #
+      #  td.column(:bill_gates_money, :decimal, :precision => 15, :scale => 2)
+      #  # => bill_gates_money DECIMAL(15,2)
+      #
+      #  td.column(:sensor_reading, :decimal, :precision => 30, :scale => 20)
+      #  # => sensor_reading DECIMAL(30,20)
+      #
+      #  # While <tt>:scale</tt> defaults to zero on most databases, it
+      #  # probably wouldn't hurt to include it.
+      #  td.column(:huge_integer, :decimal, :precision => 30)
+      #  # => huge_integer DECIMAL(30)
+      #
+      #  # Defines a column with a database-specific type.
+      #  td.column(:foo, 'polygon')
+      #  # => foo polygon
+      #
+      # == Short-hand examples
+      #
+      # Instead of calling +column+ directly, you can also work with the short-hand definitions for the default types.
+      # They use the type as the method name instead of as a parameter and allow for multiple columns to be defined
+      # in a single statement.
+      #
+      # What can be written like this with the regular calls to column:
+      #
+      #   create_table "products", :force => true do |t|
+      #     t.column "shop_id",    :integer
+      #     t.column "creator_id", :integer
+      #     t.column "name",       :string,   :default => "Untitled"
+      #     t.column "value",      :string,   :default => "Untitled"
+      #     t.column "created_at", :datetime
+      #     t.column "updated_at", :datetime
+      #   end
+      #
+      # Can also be written as follows using the short-hand:
+      #
+      #   create_table :products do |t|
+      #     t.integer :shop_id, :creator_id
+      #     t.string  :name, :value, :default => "Untitled"
+      #     t.timestamps
+      #   end
+      #
+      # There's a short-hand method for each of the type values declared at the top. And then there's
+      # TableDefinition#timestamps that'll add created_at and +updated_at+ as datetimes.
+      #
+      # TableDefinition#references will add an appropriately-named _id column, plus a corresponding _type
+      # column if the <tt>:polymorphic</tt> option is supplied. If <tt>:polymorphic</tt> is a hash of
+      # options, these will be used when creating the <tt>_type</tt> column. So what can be written like this:
+      #
+      #   create_table :taggings do |t|
+      #     t.integer :tag_id, :tagger_id, :taggable_id
+      #     t.string  :tagger_type
+      #     t.string  :taggable_type, :default => 'Photo'
+      #   end
+      #
+      # Can also be written as follows using references:
+      #
+      #   create_table :taggings do |t|
+      #     t.references :tag
+      #     t.references :tagger, :polymorphic => true
+      #     t.references :taggable, :polymorphic => { :default => 'Photo' }
