Value Ranges and Length Adjustments

When the types string and c are compared with packed numbers of the type p , the comparison type p has 31 decimal places together with the decimal portion of the operand of type p . This can raise exceptions if overflows occur.

When the type n is compared with packed numbers of the type p

, the numeric text can contain up to 31 places, excluding leading zeroes and regardless of how big the decimal portion of the type p
operand is.

When the types string , c , and n are compared with whole numbers of the types

int8 , i , s , and b , the number value in the character-like operand does not need to fit the value range of the comparison type
i . If the number value is not in the value range, the comparison produces the correct result and no exception is raised.
