PostgreSQL DBA(116) - pgAdmin(Don't do this：Don't use money&serial)

这一节的内容是：不要使用money。
理由是:

money
It's a fixed-point type, implemented as a machine int, so arithmetic with it is fast. But it doesn't handle fractions of a cent (or equivalents in other currencies), it's rounding behaviour is probably not what you want.
It doesn't store a currency with the value, rather assuming that all money columns contain the currency specified by the database's lc_monetary locale setting. If you change the lc_monetary setting for any reason, all money columns will contain the wrong value. That means that if you insert '$10.00' while lc_monetary is set to 'en_US.UTF-8' the value you retrieve may be '10,00 Lei' or '¥1,000' if lc_monetary is changed.
Storing a value as a numeric, possibly with the currency being used in an adjacent column, might be better.

原因是money类型是定点类型，在计算机中通过机器int类型实现，取整行为可能不符合期望，同时该字段并没有存储货币单位，取决于数据库的lc_monetary设定，如果计量单位变化那么该值可能会存在问题，因此使用numeric存储数值额外使用其他字段存储货币单位。

查询数据，实际的数据是四舍五入，保留两位小数

[local]:5432 pg12@testdb=# select * from t_money; id |     c1      ----+-------------  1 | $112,343.01  2 | $112,343.31  3 | $112,343.50  4 | $112,343.99  5 | $112,343.32  6 | $112,343.32  7 | $112,343.31(7 rows)Time: 0.321 ms

修改数据库参数的货币设置为zh_CN

[local]:5432 pg12@testdb=# [local]:5432 pg12@testdb=# show lc_monetary; lc_monetary ------------- zh_CN.UTF-8(1 row)Time: 5.212 ms[local]:5432 pg12@testdb=# select * from t_money; id |      c1      ----+--------------  1 | ￥112,343.01  2 | ￥112,343.31  3 | ￥112,343.50  4 | ￥112,343.99  5 | ￥112,343.32  6 | ￥112,343.32  7 | ￥112,343.31(7 rows)Time: 2.092 ms[local]:5432 pg12@testdb=#
