this always a better decision to
decide the datatypes of such columns keeping in mind the future
requirements.
u may come to a certain point where
u think, number datatype to be better and somewhere to varchar2.
u said number datatype which is not
always used for calculation.
actually a number datatype takes
less space on disk(actual storage space) as u define it. and as compared to
varchar2 if difference is of concern.
it's a matter of requirement of
application.
