thanks James.
For the queries below, I got the birth_date as varchar type, but why
this column can be compared as date type?
apache drill (dfs.pyh)> select typeOf(birth_date) from foodmart limit 1 ;
+---------+
| EXPR$0 |
+---------+
| VARCHAR |
+---------+
1 row selected (0.234 seconds)
apache drill (dfs.pyh)> select * from foodmart where birth_date >
'1970-01-01';
+-------------+--------------------+-------------------------+------------+---------+---------------------+
| employee_id | full_name | position_title |
birth_date | salary | education_level |
+-------------+--------------------+-------------------------+------------+---------+---------------------+
