* (asterisk sign) operator
Applies to:  Databricks SQL 
 Databricks Runtime
Returns multiplier multiplied by multiplicand.
Syntax
multiplier * multiplicand
Arguments
- multiplier: A numeric or- INTERVALexpression.
- multiplicand: A numeric expression or- INTERVALexpression.
You may not specify an INTERVAL for both arguments.
Returns
- If both multiplierandmultiplicandareDECIMAL, the result isDECIMAL.
- If multiplierormultiplicandis anINTERVAL, the result is of the same type.
- If both multiplierandmultiplicandare integral numeric types, the result is the larger of the two types.
- In all other cases the result is a DOUBLE.
If either the multiplier or the multiplicand is 0, the operator returns 0.
If the result of the multiplication is outside the bound for the result type an ARITHMETIC_OVERFLOW error is raised.
Use try_multiply to return NULL on overflow.
atenção
In Databricks Runtime, if spark.sql.ansi.enabled is false, the result “wraps” if it is out of bounds for integral types, and the result is NULL for fractional types.
