 The library provides several helper functions to convert basic javascript types into their proper PostgreSQL presentation that can be passed
 directly into queries or functions as parameters. All of such helper functions are located within namespace ```pgp.as```:
 ```javascript
-pgp.as.bool(value); // returns proper PostgreSQL boolean presentation

 pgp.as.text(value); // returns proper PostgreSQL text presentation,

 pgp.as.date(value); // returns proper PostgreSQL date/time presentation,
-                    // wrapped in quotes.

 of the implicit parameter formatting through query methods. For example, if you want to
