* Change NUMERIC to enforce the maximum precision
-* Add NUMERIC division operator that doesn't round?
-
- Currently NUMERIC _rounds_ the result to the specified precision.
- This means division can return a result that multiplied by the
- divisor is greater than the dividend, e.g. this returns a value > 10:
-
- SELECT (10::numeric(2,0) / 6::numeric(2,0))::numeric(2,0) * 6;
-
- The positive modulus result returned by NUMERICs might be considered
- inaccurate, in one sense.
-
* Fix data types where equality comparison isn't intuitive, e.g. box
* Allow user-defined types to specify a type modifier at table creation
time
