Selecting a float in MySQL

Question

I am trying to do a SELECT match on a table based upon an identifier and a price, such as:

SELECT * FROM `table` WHERE `ident`=\'ident23\' AND `         


        

Answer 1

Today, I also came across the same situation and get resolved just by using FORMAT function of MySQL, It will return the results that exactly match your WHERE clause.

SELECT * FROM yourtable WHERE FORMAT(col,2) = FORMAT(value,2)

Explanation: FORMAT('col name', precision of floating point number)
