    Description

      This script:

      SELECT CAST(10000000000000000000e0 AS UNSIGNED) AS a,
             CAST(10000000000000000000.0 AS UNSIGNED) AS b,
             CAST(10000000000000000000   AS UNSIGNED) AS c;
      

      returns a wrong result, without warnings:

      +---------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
      | a                   | b                    | c                    |
      +---------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
      | 9223372036854775807 | 10000000000000000000 | 10000000000000000000 |
      +---------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
      

      Notice, the value for a is wrong. It truncated the value to the maximum positive signed value.
      The expected result would be to return 10000000000000000000 for all columns.

      If I rewrite the script slightly, it still returns the same wrong result for a, but now with a warning:

      SELECT CAST(CAST(10000000000000000000 AS DOUBLE) AS UNSIGNED) AS a,
             CAST(CAST(10000000000000000000 AS DECIMAL(30,0)) AS UNSIGNED) AS b,
             CAST(CAST(10000000000000000000 AS UNSIGNED) AS UNSIGNED) AS c;
      SHOW WARNINGS;

      If I rewrite the script using table columns, it also returns the same wrong result, with a warning:

      CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE t1 (a DOUBLE, b DECIMAL(30,0), c BIGINT UNSIGNED);
      INSERT INTO t1 VALUES (10000000000000000000,10000000000000000000,10000000000000000000);
      SELECT CAST(a AS UNSIGNED) AS a,
             CAST(b AS UNSIGNED) AS b,
             CAST(c AS UNSIGNED) AS c
        FROM t1;
      SHOW WARNINGS;
