   I checked the maintained Doris source rather than assuming a length is 
required. A table column declared as `VARCHAR` without `(M)` is accepted: 
`ColumnDefinition.updateCharacterTypeLength` supplies 
`VarcharType.MAX_VARCHAR_LENGTH`. The same handling is present in branches 3.0, 
3.1, 4.0, 4.1 and master. Therefore the current PERCENT_RANK example is valid 
without an explicit length, and this does not require a documentation patch. 
Closing the reported example issue.
   
   Source example (3.0): 
https://github.com/apache/doris/blob/4090f6c40d2238b7aff73185bcada48f96fbd6be/fe/fe-core/src/main/java/org/apache/doris/nereids/trees/plans/commands/info/ColumnDefinition.java#L193
   
   This conclusion is based on source inspection; no live SQL execution is 
claimed.
