----------------------------------------------------------------
[~KevinZwx]. Did you see HIVE-17186? Hive doesn't give you the correct result.
For the following TPC-H query, it will exclude '0.07'.
{code}
select l_discount from lineitem where l_discount between 0.06 - 0.01 and 0.06 +
0.01
{code}
I'm not disagreeing with this issue. I want to give you a well-known example
where you cannot trust Hive result.

> Accuracy problem in comparison with string and integer
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-23498
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-23498
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 2.2.0, 2.2.1, 2.3.0
> Reporter: Kevin Zhang
> Priority: Major
>
> While comparing a string column with integer value, spark sql will
> automatically cast the string operant to int, the following sql will return
> true in hive but false in spark
>
> {code:java}
> select '1000.1'>1000
> {code}
>
> from the physical plan we can see the string operant was cast to int which
> caused the accuracy loss
> {code:java}
> *Project [false AS (CAST(1000.1 AS INT) > 1000)#4]
> +- Scan OneRowRelation[]
> {code}
> To solve it, using a wider common type like double to cast both sides of
> operant of a binary operator may be safe.
