Description: documentation on PQfmod for numeric data types
Details:
> The interpretation of modifier values
> is type-specific; they typically indicate
> precision or size limits.
This documentation on PQfmod doesn't help when one tries to determine the
scale/precision of column with numeric data type. Please add more specific
documentation or any links to documentation about "type-specific
interpretation". (documentation on numeric data types, chapter 8.1, was
grepped for substring "fmod" and "modi" without any results.)
