alamb opened a new issue #108:
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/issues/108


   *Note*: migrated from original JIRA: 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-10132
   
    
   ||col||
   |1.2|
   |1.3e-2|
   |1.4|
   
   Currently this column would be inferred as Utf8 type, since 
csv::reader::DECIMAL_RE is defined as r"^-?(\d+\.\d+)$". Maybe we could change 
this to r"^-?(\d+\.\d+)(e-?(\d+))?$" or similar stuff to allow scientific 
notation of real number inferred as float?
   
    
   
   (The RE I currently proposed doesn't handle "5e-4" correctly though)
   
    
   
   And I would wish we could infer "3." or ".3" as float too. I will come up 
with an exact RE when I get time.
