Re: FETCH FIRST clause PERCENT option - Mailing list pgsql-hackers

Another little thing, not sure it's a bug:

limit interprets its argument by rounding up or down as one would
expect:

table onek limit 10.4;  --> gives 10 rows
table onek limit 10.6;  --> gives 11 rows

but  FETCH count PERCENT  does not do that; it rounds always up.

select * from (table onek limit 100) f fetch first 10.4 percent rows
only; --> gives 11 rows
select * from (table onek limit 100) f fetch first 10.6 percent rows
only; --> gives 11 rows

I see that it's documented in the .sgml to behave as it does, but it
seems wrong to me;
shouldn't that 10.4-percent-query yield 10 rows instead of 11?
