I have been facing some problem with the datatypes.  I have a sample of code
as follows.

  t.lat_rad = (l.lat * BigDecimal.new("3.1415926536 / 180")).to_f
   t.lng_rad = (l.lng * BigDecimal.new("3.1415926536 / 180")).to_f

Initially, the datatype of lat_rad and lng_rad was as follows:

 t.decimal :lat_rad, :precision => 15, :scale => 10
  t.decimal :lng_rad, :precision => 15, :scale => 10

So, it gave me an error as follows:

 TypeError in ItemsController#populate

wrong argument type BigDecimal (expected Float)

Then I changed the data type of lat_rad and lng_rad to float.  Even then it
is giving me the same error.  Any help to solve this problem will be
appreciated.  Thanks in advance.
