Subject Problem with floating point precission
Author Alejandro
Hi!

I'm trying to do some floating point operations in a select, but
there aren't table columns involved (at least not for certain
results).

Say, for example that I have:

select 7.0 / 800.0, x.Other_Data
from A_Table x;

My first column is returning 0, because only two decimals are being
used and result is below that. I've checked it with larger values and
in fact the maximum precision I get is 0.01

Is there some parameter or configuration option which allows for
increased precision?

Thanks in advance!
