[OASIS Issue Tracker] (ODATA-918) CLONE - Numeric promotion (on overflow) across "number type families" is undesirable.

[OASIS Issues Tracker <workgroup_mailer@lists.oasis-open.org>]

     [ https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/ODATA-918?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Martin Zurmuehl updated ODATA-918:
----------------------------------

    Proposal: 
Add operator "divideby" that always results in a decimal (as if both operands were promoted to decimal).
2) Specify the result type for each operation based on operator types
     a) Don't promote outside of type families 
     b) Do not promote Single->Double 
3) Specify overflow of int (would need to add +inf/-inf/nan to int) 
    a) Push for, in JSON Schema 5, that the strings "-inf", "+inf", "nan" are valid for numbers
