https://dev.mysql.com/floating-point-types.html
The FLOAT and DOUBLE types represent approximate numeric data values. MySQL uses four bytes for single-precision values and eight bytes for double-precision values. For FLOAT, the SQL standard permits an optional specification of the precision (but ...
https://dev.mysql.com/problems-with-float.html
Floating-point numbers sometimes cause confusion because they are approximate and not stored as exact values. A floating-point value as written in an SQL statement may not be the same as the value represented internally. Attempts to treat ...

For additional information about properties and storage requirements of the numeric types, see Section 11.2, “Numeric Types”, and Section 11.8, “Data Type Storage Requirements”. Display width is unrelated to the range of values a type can ...
https://dev.mysql.com/type-conversion.html
When an operator is used with operands of different types, type conversion occurs to make the operands compatible. For example, MySQL automatically converts strings to numbers as necessary, and vice versa. mysql> SELECT 1+'1'; -> 2 mysql> SELECT ...
https://dev.mysql.com/replication-features-floatvalues.html
With statement-based replication, values are converted from decimal to binary. Because conversions between decimal and binary representations of them may be approximate, comparisons involving floating-point values are inexact. This is true for ...

This section provides some examples that show precision math query results in MySQL. These examples demonstrate the principles described in Section 12.25.3, “Expression Handling”, and Section 12.25.4, “Rounding Behavior”. Consider the ...
https://dev.mysql.com/number-literals.html
Number literals include exact-value (integer and DECIMAL) literals and approximate-value (floating-point) literals. Numbers may be preceded by - or + to indicate a negative or positive value, respectively. Numbers represented in scientific notation ...

mysql> SELECT ABS(2); -> 2 mysql> SELECT ABS(-32); -> 32 This function is safe to use with BIGINT values. ACOS(X) Returns the arc cosine of X, that is, the value whose cosine is X. Returns NULL if X is not in the range -1 to 1. mysql> SELECT ...
https://dev.mysql.com/server-error-reference.html
The MySQL server writes some error messages to its error log, and sends others to client programs. Example server-side error messages written to the error log: 2018-10-28T13:01:32.735983Z 0 [Note] [MY-010303] [Server] Skipping generation of SSL ...
