    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_conversion

    The actions of type conversion in Eiffel, specifically converts to and converts from are defined as: A type based on a class CU converts to a type T based on a class CT (and T converts from U) if either CT has a conversion procedure using U as a conversion type, or CU has a conversion query listing T as a conversion type

  3. Decimal data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_data_type

    Some IBM systems and SQL systems support DECFLOAT format with at least the two larger formats. [3] ABAP's new DECFLOAT data type includes decimal64 (as DECFLOAT16) and decimal128 (as DECFLOAT34) formats. [4] PL/I natively supports both fixed-point and floating-point decimal data.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varchar

    Varchar fields can be of any size up to a limit, which varies by databases: an Oracle 11g database has a limit of 4000 bytes, [1] a MySQL 5.7 database has a limit of 65,535 bytes (for the entire row) [2] and Microsoft SQL Server 2008 has a limit of 8000 bytes (unless varchar(max) is used, which has a maximum storage capacity of 2 gigabytes).

  5. Data conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_conversion

    Data conversion is the conversion of computer data from one format to another. Throughout a computer environment, data is encoded in a variety of ways. For example, computer hardware is built on the basis of certain standards, which requires that data contains, for example, parity bit checks.

  6. SQL syntax - Wikipedia

    FLOAT, REAL and DOUBLE PRECISION; NUMERIC(precision, scale) or DECIMAL(precision, scale) DECFLOAT(precision) For example, the number 123.45 has a precision of 5 and a scale of 2. The precision is a positive integer that determines the number of significant digits in a particular radix (binary or decimal). The scale is a non-negative integer. A ...

  7. Single-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    Convert the fraction part using the following technique as shown here; Add the two results and adjust them to produce a proper final conversion; Conversion of the fractional part: Consider 0.375, the fractional part of 12.375. To convert it into a binary fraction, multiply the fraction by 2, take the integer part and repeat with the new ...

  8. Structured type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structured_type

    These can be defined either in plain SQL with CREATE TYPE but also in Java via SQL/JRT. SQL structured types allow single inheritance . Structured types are supported to varying degrees in Oracle Database , IBM Db2 , PostgreSQL and Microsoft SQL Server , although the latter only allows structured types defined in CLR .

  9. Data orientation - Wikipedia

    For example, a table of 128 rows with a Boolean column requires 128 bytes a row-oriented format (one byte per Boolean) but 128 bits (16 bytes) in a column-oriented format (via a bitmap). Another example is the use of run-length encoding to encode a column.
