--------------------------------------

Hi [~smilegator] and [~dongjoon],

Just checked the DB2 behaviour. FYI.

db2 => select cast('infinity' as decfloat) from foo; 
1                                         
------------------------------------------
                                  Infinity
  1 record(s) selected.
db2 => select cast('Infinity' as decfloat) from foo;
1                                         
------------------------------------------
                                  Infinity
  1 record(s) selected.
db2 => select cast('iNfinity' as decfloat) from foo;
1                                         
------------------------------------------
                                  Infinity 
  1 record(s) selected.

Regards,

>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Sub-task
>          Components: SQL
>    Affects Versions: 3.0.0
>            Reporter: Xiao Li
>            Priority: Major
>
> When the inputs contain the constant 'infinity', Spark SQL does not generate 
> the expected results.
> {code:java}
> SELECT avg(CAST(x AS DOUBLE)), var_pop(CAST(x AS DOUBLE))
> FROM (VALUES ('1'), (CAST('infinity' AS DOUBLE))) v(x);
> SELECT avg(CAST(x AS DOUBLE)), var_pop(CAST(x AS DOUBLE))
> FROM (VALUES ('infinity'), ('1')) v(x);
> SELECT avg(CAST(x AS DOUBLE)), var_pop(CAST(x AS DOUBLE))
> FROM (VALUES ('infinity'), ('infinity')) v(x);
> SELECT avg(CAST(x AS DOUBLE)), var_pop(CAST(x AS DOUBLE))
> FROM (VALUES ('-infinity'), ('infinity')) v(x);{code}
>  The root cause: Spark SQL does not recognize the special constants in a case 
> insensitive way. In PostgreSQL, they are recognized in a case insensitive 
> way.
