MySQL plays pretty loose with most datatypes and stores half the numeric
types as strings, so
I want e.g. a 16 bit field where I can use the individual bits for various
flags. How should I set the MySQL datatype and attributes?
SMALLINT UNSIGNED
also look at SET
Also, are there any other caveats I should know about? (e.g. PHP's handling
of integers)
32bit signed (should be ok).
