Arguments

  • float_expression
    An expression of data types that can be implicitly converted to float.

float

Example

The following example returns the cosine of various angles.

CREATE TABLE Cosine ("COS(0)" float, "COS(PI()/6)" float, "COS(PI()/4)" float, "COS(PI()/3)" float, "COS(PI()/2)" float);
INSERT INTO Cosine VALUES (COS(0), COS(PI()/6), COS(PI()/4), COS(PI()/3), COS(PI()/2));
SELECT * 
FROM Cosine;
