# oci_field_precision

(PHP 5, PECL OCI8 >= 1.1.0)

oci_field_precision — Tell the precision of a field

### Description

int oci_field_precision ( resource `$statement` , int `$field` )

Returns precision of the `field`.

For FLOAT columns, precision is nonzero and scale is -127. If precision is 0, then column is NUMBER. Else it's NUMBER(precision, scale).

### Parameters

`statement`

  A valid OCI statement identifier.

`field`

  Can be the field's index (1-based) or name.

### Return Values

Returns the precision as an integer, or `FALSE` on errors.

### Notes

> Note:

> In PHP versions before 5.0.0 you must use ocicolumnprecision() instead. This name still can be used, it was left as alias of oci_field_precision() for downwards compatability. This, however, is deprecated and not recommended.
