      I see below issue is happening only if base column datatype is integer. All other types working fine.

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  |
------------------+
