with INTEGER or SMALLINT data types, for example: - FloatValue
is a signed or unsigned floating point number compatible
with the FLOAT or REAL data types, for example: - FixedPointValue
is a signed or unsigned fixed-point number compatible
with the DECIMAL data type, for example: - CharacterString
is a character string compatible with CHAR, VARCHAR,
DATE, TIME, DATETIME, or INTERVAL data types. String constants are delimited
by single quotation marks, for example: However, two single quotation marks in a row are interpreted
as a single quotation mark, not as string delimiters. - HexadecimalString

A through F (the lowercase a through f are also accepted) compatible
with the BINARY and VARBINARY data types. A HexadecimalString constant must be prefaced with the characters 0x,
