MySQL - DECIMAL

To create a column of decimal datatype through a JavaScript program, we need to execute the "CREATE TABLE" statement using the query() function of mysql2 library as follows −

sql = "CREATE TABLE EMPLOYEES ( ID int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, NAME varchar(30) NOT NULL, SALARY decimal(14,4) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (ID) )";
con.query(sql);

To create a column of decimal datatype through a Java program, we need to execute the "CREATE TABLE" statement using the JDBC function execute() as follows −

String sql = "CREATE TABLE STUDENTS (ID int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, NAME varchar(30) NOT NULL, BRANCH ENUM (\"CSE\", \"ECE\", \"MECH\"), FEES int NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (ID))";
statement.execute(sql);

To create a column of decimal datatype through a python program, we need to execute the "CREATE TABLE" statement using the execute() function of the MySQL Connector/Python as follows −

sql = 'CREATE TABLE EMPLOYEES (ID int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, NAME varchar(30) NOT NULL, SALARY decimal(14,4) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (ID))'    
cursorObj.execute(sql)

var mysql = require("mysql2");
var con = mysql.createConnection({
  host: "localhost",
  user: "root",
  password: "password",
}); //Connecting to MySQL

con.connect(function (err) {
  if (err) throw err;
  //   console.log("Connected successfully...!");
  //   console.log("--------------------------");
  sql = "USE TUTORIALS";
  con.query(sql);

  //create a employees table, that accepts one column of decimal type.
  sql = "CREATE TABLE EMPLOYEES ( ID int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, NAME varchar(30) NOT NULL, SALARY decimal(14,4) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (ID) )";
  con.query(sql);

  //insert data into created table
  sql = "INSERT INTO EMPLOYEES (NAME, SALARY) VALUES ('Krishna', 150050.34), ('Kalyan', 100000.65)";
  con.query(sql);

  //select datatypes of salary
  sql = `SELECT DATA_TYPE FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS WHERE table_name = 'EMPLOYEES' AND COLUMN_NAME = 'SALARY'`;
  con.query(sql, function (err, result) {
    if (err) throw err;
    console.log(result);
  });
});  

Output

The output produced is as follows −

[ { DATA_TYPE: 'decimal' } ]

import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
import java.sql.Statement;
 
public class Decimal {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      String url = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/TUTORIALS";
      String username = "root";
      String password = "password";
      try {
         Class.forName("com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver");
         Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection(url, username, password);
         Statement statement = connection.createStatement();
         System.out.println("Connected successfully...!");
 
         //Decimal data types...!;
         String sql = "CREATE TABLE EMPLOYEES ( ID int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, NAME varchar(30) NOT NULL, SALARY decimal(14,4) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (ID))";
         statement.execute(sql);
         System.out.println("column of a Decimal type created successfully...!");
         ResultSet resultSet = statement.executeQuery("DESCRIBE EMPLOYEES");
         while (resultSet.next()){
            System.out.println(resultSet.getString(1)+" "+resultSet.getString(2));
         }
         connection.close();
      } catch (Exception e) {
         System.out.println(e);
      }
   }
}    

Output

The output obtained is as shown below −

Connected successfully...!
column of a Decimal type created successfully...!
ID int
NAME varchar(30)
SALARY decimal(14,4)

cursorObj.execute(select_query)
result = cursorObj.fetchall()
print("Table Data:")
for row in result:
    print(row)
cursorObj.close()
connection.close()      

Output

Following is the output of the above code −

The table is created successfully!
Rows inserted successfully.
Table Data:
(1, 'Krishna', Decimal('150050.3400'))
(2, 'Kalyan', Decimal('100000.6500'))
