Some TYPE gotchas
 
 
- Bind TYPE attribute is just a hint
- 
- and like all hints in the DBI, they can be ignored
 
- 
- Most drivers only care about the number vs string distinction
- 
- and ignore other type of TYPE value
 
- For some drivers that do pay attention to the TYPE…
- 
- using the wrong type can mean an index on the value field isn’t used!
