One of the tasks in the MS Applied Skills Assessment for lakehouses, includes the following requirement: "In tables that have a prefix of prod_, change the data type of all the numeric and date columns". But it's not specified to what kind of data type these columns shall be converted.
Solved! Go to Solution.
you are supposed to eyeball the column contents and set whatever looks like a number to numeric, and whatever looks like dates to date.
