Hi Memphisto,
If you are using v6.4 you can use CAST as:
prova=> select cast('1.7976931348623e+308'::float8 as text);
?column?
--------------------
1.7976931348623e+308
(1 row)
or:
prova=> select cast(f as text) from a;
text
----------------------
4714-11--2147483624 BC <---
4714-11--2147483624 BC <---
(2 rows)
Ooops! that seems like a bug.
prova=> select f from a;
f
--------------------
1.7976931348623e+308
1.7976931348623e+308
(2 rows)
