As you know the DECIMAL() method takes two parameter. The first parameter tells about the total number of digits and second parameter tells about number of digits after decimal point. Therefore, if you use DECIMAL(10, 10) that means you can use only 10 fractional digit.For Example: Store 0.9999999999 with DECIMAL(20, 10).To understand what we discussed above, let us create a table. The query to create a table is as follows:mysql> create table Decimal_Demo -> ( -> Id int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, -> Price DECIMAL(20, 10), -> PRIMARY KEY(Id) ...

You do not need to store a field PRICE as an int or as float in the database. For this, you can set the DECIMAL()..Most of the time integers can be used to represent the float point numbers and these integers are internally cast into DECIMAL() data type. Therefore, if you have field PRICE then always use DECIMAL() data type. The syntax is as follows −DECIMAL(M, D);Here, M represents the ‘TotalNumberOfDigit’ and D represents the ‘Number OfDigitAfterDecimalPoint’.To understand the above concept, let us create a table with field PRICE as DECIMAL data type.
