Notes

The full SQL type syntax is allowed for input arguments and return 
value. However, some details of the type specification (e.g., the 
precision field for type numeric) are the responsibility of the 
underlying function implementation and are silently swallowed (i.e., not 
recognized or enforced) by the CREATE FUNCTION command.
