XSD Numeric Data Types
Decimal data types are used for numeric values.
Decimal Data Type
The decimal data type is used to specify a numeric value.
The following is an example of a decimal declaration in a schema:
<xs:element name="prize" type="xs:decimal"/>
|
An element in your document might look like this:
Or it might look like this:
Or it might look like this:
Or it might look like this:
Or it might look like this:
Note: The maximum number of decimal digits you can specify is 18.
Integer Data Type
The integer data type is used to specify a numeric value without a fractional
component.
The following is an example of an integer declaration in a schema:
<xs:element name="prize" type="xs:integer"/>
|
An element in your document might look like this:
