Howdy Gents- I'm sure I'm having an "oh duh!" moment, but can anyone tell me what is going on here.
I am multiplying two columns it doesn't matter what their data type is not does it seem to matter if I explicitly cast these values to some other data type every time they are multiplied I am getting an incorrect result. col1 = 213.1086 col2 = 0.833 If I perform select col1 * col2, 213.1086 * .833 from tableA I get the following values 177.519464 and 177.583396 What I am doing wrong!?!??? I need to get the expected 177.583396 value. Thanks for any assistance! Using 7.2.1 on freeBSD
