All,

 

Quick question –

 

For a specific scenario I would like to understand below -

 

If  we don’t specify column header in SQL or alias, how is MonetDB picks up the column header? And what is the datatype for it? I saw it’s hge (scalar type) is it so? Also, I would like to know where in source code it’s happening.

 

Example:

 

SELECT SUM(COLUMN_NAME) FROM TABLE_NAME;

 

------------------+

| L3                  |

------------------+

|123456678  |

------------------+

 

Regards,
