    Description

      Modern SQL 2016 standard introduces DECFLOAT type.
      Most of the vendors support it and even drop DECIMAL type support for DECFLOAT.
      DB2 doc of the latest versions says DECIMAL is backed by DECFLOAT implicitly.

      AFAIK, it supports NaN, positive/negative Infinity values.
