Hmm, right. But you need more than two: consider alvherre=# select 0.42 + 1; ?column? ---------- 1.42 (1 ligne) However, it would be neat if this behaved the same as alvherre=# select '0.42' + 1; ERROR: invalid input syntax for integer: "0.42" STATEMENT: select '0.42' + 1; -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
