PL/SQL :: Compare 2 Numbers With Different Precision
Jan 30, 2013
Using DB 10.2.0.5, I've encountered a strange behavior today while trying to compare ORA_ROWSCN with a previous SCN stored in a column.
SELECT
h.id HID,
h.ora_rowscn HSCN,
o.id OID,
o.scn OSCN,
[code]......
1157 rows While casting o.scn to a number gives me another resultset (this one is correct):
SELECT
h.id HID,
h.ora_rowscn HSCN,
o.id OID,
o.scn OSCN,
h.ora_rowscn-o.scn DIFF
[code]......
2114 rows I got the same result if I use NVL(o.scn,0) rather than TO_NUMBER(o.scn). I can't find out why this happens. Obviously, the ">" condition doesn't match when the difference is too small.
AFAIK, ora_rowscn is a NUMBER while my "scn" column is a NUMBER(12) (which should be sufficient to store my DB or remote DB's SCN).

I have a table test with column containing dates, characters and numbers. I have to extract the number part and the three characters before the number . My data looks like :
TEST
ID DATA
1 3/12/2007
2 0
3 3/8/2010 ABC 217
4 NONE
5 COLM XYZ 469 6/8/2011
6 LMN 209
My expected results should look like :
ID DATA
1
2
3 ABC 217
4
5 XYZ 469
6 LMN 209

I got the error "ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: number precision too large" while assigning a value to variable.
For example var Number(5,3);
var:=225.345
Here it should give this error since the no.of digits before decimal should not be more than 2.
In of the procedure, I am getting this error.
Is there any way can we check this violation before assigning this values to a variable?
For example, if the value is too large, we can give a default value etc before assigning it.
Environment: UNIX AIX - 5.3, Oracle 11.2.0.1

When we are trying to create number data type column of a table with precision greater than actual value,it's accepting the definition of the table . But we are unable to insert any values into the table.how internally it stores the value
SQL> drop table precision_test;
Table dropped
SQL> create table precision_test(name number(2,5));
Table created
SQL> insert into precision_test values (1);
insert into precision_test values (1)

I am trying to do bulk insert into a table. Attached is the script I am running:
But when I run this script I get exception : 'ORA-01438: value larger than specified precision allowed for this column'.
I have checked in my soucre table as well as in inserting table, everything looks fine to me.
how to handle such exception, which could actually tell me for what column and what data it is throwing exception.

I have a procedure. Here is the spec
Procedure countyname(i_lat IN Number, i_lon IN NUMBER, o_countyname OUT VARCHAR2);
The procedure works fine when the input parameter values are small precision like 30.653, -618.765 etc.it fails if the Input parameter values have more precise like 35.694872140886...I think the IN Number can only take upto certain precission.
Is there any way I can specify the precision for a NUMBER input parameter in a procedure?
ex: Procedure countyname(i_lat IN Number(30,10), i_lon IN NUMBER(30,10), o_countyname OUT VARCHAR2);
when I tried the above statement it doesn't compile it gives PLS-00103 error.

We have truncated number based on the decimal value. i tried to truncate number based on the precision using cast function. i got an error "value larger than specified precision allowed for this colum".
create table TEST_NUMBER
(id number(4,1));
insert into TEST_NUMBER
values(1234.789888888888);
[code]...
ORA-01438: value larger than specified precision allowed for this column
01438. 00000 - "value larger than specified precision allowed for this column"
*Cause: When inserting or updating records, a numeric value was entered that exceeded the precision defined for the column.
*Action: Enter a value that complies with the numeric column's precision, or use the MODIFY option with the ALTER TABLE command to expand the precision.
i want result like 1.8

POWER(47.3616, 27.1261) returns: 2.80403309600359E45 which causes "number precision too large" error in my variable which is defined as NUMBER(20,20).
I've tried ROUNDing and TRUNCing the product, but still get the same long output. The only thing that seems to work is SUBSTR.
Is that the ONLY way to deal with this? It seems like there would be a better way or is there another type I should use these super long decimal results?

I am working on an application that pulls data from an Oracle view into Microsoft Excel (Oracle 11g, MS Excel 2003). It is an automated pivot table created through vba. The problem I'm having is that the decimal points from number columns are being truncated - they don't make it to the pivot table.
When I use the pivot table wizard and set the external data source using a SQL string (select * from view), the precision is not lost. When I create the pivot table automatically in vba, the precision is lost. The pivot table settings, regardless of how the data is brought in, shows the format of the number column as general. This tells me that Excel is trying to figure out what the data type is, and can't (not smart enough).
When looking at the description of the view, the data type is NUMBER (no precision). The table that it is pulling from has the precision set (NUMBER(11,3)). I have tried using the following, but it doesn't work:
select to_number(field_name, '99999999.999') field_name from view

I have the following set of numbers that i am passing in as one input into a stored procedure.
234,456,234,456,567
Now i want to take this list of numbers and use it in an IN statement:
select * from table where column_a in (P_INPUT);
however, when i try this, it give me an invalid error. I have tried inserting single quote around each value and get the same invalid error. I tried a To_char around my column, which solved the error, but it never finds a match!

Here is the screenshot of my output (I cannot embed links until 5 posts!): flic.kr/p/eaSHBP
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION sumfivenumbers ( n1 NUMBER, n2 NUMBER, n3 NUMBER, n4 NUMBER, n5 NUMBER)

Here i face probelm that he numbers must be follw by DOT "." , this is not correct if the statment only conatines numbers without DOT that not extract. As the
SELECT REGEXP_SUBSTR ( 'hello to 8898989898989 jkjk nnnm mnj'
, '([0-9]+.[0-9]*)' || -- Starts with digit(s) (may or may not have digits after .)
'|' || -- or
'(.[0-9]+)' -- starts with decimal point
) AS result
FROM dual
;
but mean i have to add . after numbers . as follow
SELECT REGEXP_SUBSTR ( 'hello to 8898989898989 jkjk nnnm mnj'
, '([0-9]+.[0-9]*)' || -- Starts with digit(s) (may or may not have digits after .)
'|' || -- or
'(.[0-9]+)' -- starts with decimal point
) AS result
FROM dual
;
but this is not right
i want to extract numbers without DOT also.
