Snowflake is not severe with the Type Casting. For instance, subtracting the numeric value in the string quotes from another numeric value with not giving the general errors other programming languages and databases will provide:
select 20 + ‘20’;
But, as the requirement originates, we can utilize the “cast()” function for forcing the kind of the value:
Examples:
We can cast to various Snowflake types like char, binary, date, varchar, float, time, decimal, and date time.
In Snowflake, we can convert the data type of the values. As per the value, we can force the data type. I hope this blog is sufficient for converting the data types of values.
