This issue is to ensure that Mathesar can handle the Postgres DOUBLE PRECISION data type.

As part of this issue, we need to ensure that:

  • Users can use the API to change a column to DOUBLE PRECISION if it's possible to do so.
  • There's nothing to do here on automatic type inference. It should never suggest DOUBLE PRECISION since we're aiming to be friendly to non-technical users and floating points can be confusing.
