Hi ALL,

I have a table TEST that has one row and one column. The column is defined as VARCHAR(240). I inserted an integer value = 1 into the field . Then I ran the explian plan on the following query

     EXPLAIN SELECT * FROM TEST
     WHERE ID = 1

Looking at the explain plan I was just wondering how does the data get stored in the table. It look like exponential values are getting generated. Any help on this would be appreciated.

     " ID (FLOAT, FORMAT
     '-9.99999999999999E-999'))= 1.00000000000000E 000") into Spool 1
     (group_amps), which is built locally on the AMPs.  The size of
     Spool 1 is estimated with no confidence to be 8 rows (824 bytes).
