      Description

      Per the SQL standard,

      • the SQL REAL type is a 4 byte floating point number (thus maps to Java float),
      • FLOAT is up to 8 bytes (thus maps to Java double), and
      • DOUBLE is 8 bytes (thus maps to Java double).

      A number of places in Calcite map FLOAT to float values, and I think a few others map REAL to double.
