- Values of the <type>numeric</type> data type can be cast to
- <type>money</type>. Other numeric types can be converted to
- <type>money</type> by casting to <type>numeric</type> first, for example:
+ Values of the <type>numeric</type>, <type>int</type>, and
+ <type>bigint</type> data types can be cast to <type>money</type>.
+ Conversion from the <type>real</type> and <type>double precision</type>
+ data types can be done by casting to <type>numeric</type> first, for
+ example:
<programlisting>
-SELECT 1234::numeric::money;
+SELECT '12.34'::float8::numeric::money;
</programlisting>
+ However, this is not recommended. Floating point numbers should not be
+ used to handle money due to the potential for rounding errors.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
A <type>money</type> value can be cast to <type>numeric</type> without
loss of precision. Conversion to other types could potentially lose
- precision, and it must be done in two stages, for example:
+ precision, and must also be done in two stages:
<programlisting>
SELECT '52093.89'::money::numeric::float8;
