However, the > current implementation has unlimited precision and provides no way to specify > precision and scale when creating the table. > For example, MySQL allows users to specify scale and precision of the decimal > datatype when creating the table: > {code} > CREATE TABLE numbers (a DECIMAL(20,2)); > {code} > Hive should support something similar too. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1#6144)
