I am wondering which of the following two data types you use: DECIMAL or NUMERIC?
In the SQL Anywhere documentation, it says DECIMAL is a core feature of the ANSI SQL Standard, whereas NUMERIC is compatible. As far as I understand, DECIMAL gives the database manufacturer a bit more freedom for the implementation of precision, as I found on the internet the following: "... precision equal to or greater than the value of the specified <precision>"
So it seems to me logical to use DECIMAL, isn't it?
Request clarification before answering.
According to the Help DECIMAL is semantically equivalent to NUMERIC.
