Review comment:
       This doesn't appear to be the case. For example if the query is:
       `SELECT count(*) from mytable WHERE intColumn < 3000000000.453`
   then `stringValue` gets set to 3000000000.453 and the current code would 
throw exception because 3000000000.453 is not a valid integer.
   
   After the change, the above query will evaluate successfully (which is 
expected SQL behavior). Same with other queries such as:
       `SELECT count(*) from mytable WHERE intColumn = 5.0`
