Enable range statistics for a specific column in a **compressed** hypertable. This tracks a range of values for that column per chunk. Used for chunk pruning during query optimization.
-### Required arguments
+Best practice is to enable range tracking on columns that are correlated to the
+partitioning column. In other words, enable tracking on secondary columns which are
+referenced in the `WHERE` clauses in your queries.

-|-|-|-|

-### Optional arguments
+TimescaleDB supports min/max range tracking for the `smallint`, `int`,
+`bigint`, `serial`, `bigserial`, `date`, `timestamp`, and `timestamptz` data types. The
+min/max ranges are calculated when a chunk belonging to
+this hypertable is compressed using the [compress_chunk][compress_chunk] function.
+The range is stored in start (inclusive) and end (exclusive) form in the
+`chunk_column_stats` catalog table.

+A [decompress_chunk][decompress_chunk] invocation on a compressed chunk resets its entries

- TimescaleDB supports min/max range tracking for the `smallint`, `int`,
- `bigint`, `serial`, `bigserial`, `date`, `timestamp`, and `timestamptz` data types.
+By default, this feature is disabled. To enable chunk skipping, set `timescale.enable_chunk_skipping = on` in
+`postgresql.conf`. When you upgrade from a database instance that uses compression but does not support chunk
+skipping, you need to recompress the previously compressed chunks for chunk skipping to work.

-### Sample use
+## Samples
In this sample, you convert the `conditions` table to a hypertable with
partitioning on the `time` column. You then specify and enable additional columns to track ranges for.
