Variables in perl are “untyped” or better yet “dynamically typed”.
Every variable is a string but will behave like a int or float in the right
context.
Conversions from string to int to float and back to string happen

hi,
I select a decimal column, from mysql with dbi,
the value 0.015 for example, my ($v) = $dbh->selectrow_array("select price
from test limit 1")
it is greater than 0 in perl.
What's the proper way to get a float value ?
