<para>
Returns precision of the field with <parameter>field</parameter> index
(1-based).
</para>
<para>
For FLOAT columns, precision is nonzero and scale is -127.
If precision is 0, then column is NUMBER. Else it's
NUMBER(precision, scale).
</para>
<note>
<para>
In PHP versions before 5.0.0 you must use <function>ocicolumnprecision</function> instead.
This name still can be used, it was left as alias of
<function>oci_field_precision</function> for downwards compatability.
This, however, is deprecated and not recommended.
</para>
</note>
<para>
See also <function>oci_field_scale</function> and
<function>oci_field_type</function>.
