> Key: FLINK-10438
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-10438
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation, Table SQL / API
> Affects Versions: 1.6.1
> Reporter: Piotr Nowojski
> Priority: Not a Priority
> Labels: auto-deprioritized-major, auto-deprioritized-minor
>
> As it is now, user have no idea to know whether the result of the operation
> is accurate or not.
> For example {{POWER(4, 2)}} or {{POWER(2.5, )}} could return exact results
> (with proper {{DECIMAL}} support), while it seems like now they are silently
> returning approximated result (because of {{DOUBLE}} arithmetic). Same
> applies to other arithmetic functions, like {{COS SIN ATAN LOG ...}}.
> Such behaviour should be documented. In some cases documenting the argument
> types also might be important.
