Explicitly Insert Float Values
When inserting documents into MongoDB, explicitly define float values for float fields. If we have integer values, convert them to floats before insertion.
db.products.insertOne({
"name": "Product 3",
"price": 30.0 // Insert float value
});
Output:
Explanation: This query inserts a new document into the products
collection with the name "Product 3"
and a price of 30.0
. The price is inserted as a float value, which MongoDB will internally store as a 64-bit floating-point number.
How to Inserts float When trying to Insert Integer in MongoDB
MongoDB, a popular NoSQL database, provides flexibility in defining data types for fields within documents. However, when attempting to insert integer values into fields defined as floats, unexpected behavior may occur.
In this article, We will explore how MongoDB handles integer and float values by understanding various methods along with the implementation for ensuring data consistency
