Jeremiah Jordan commented on CASSANDRA-11935:
---------------------------------------------
bq. The type with the highest precision will always be returned
So 100+50 is now going to be varint math?
> Add support for arithmetic operators
> ------------------------------------

> Key: CASSANDRA-11935
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-11935
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: CQL
> Reporter: Benjamin Lerer
> Assignee: Benjamin Lerer
> Fix For: 3.x
>
>
> The goal of this ticket is to add support for arithmetic operators:
> * {{-}}: Change the sign of the argument
> * {{+}}: Addition operator
> * {{-}}: Minus operator
> * {{*}}: Multiplication operator
> * {{/}}: Division operator
> * {{%}}: Modulo operator
> This ticket we should focus on adding operator only for numeric types to keep
> the scope as small as possible. Dates and string operations will be adressed
> in follow up tickets.
> The operation precedence should be:
> # {{*}}, {{/}}, {{%}}
> # {{+}}, {{-}}
> Some implicit data conversion should be performed when operations are
> performed on different types (e.g. double + int).
