Right now the srx file has ?twice = "6"^^xsd:long, but the F&O document says "each operator is defined to operate on operands of the same type and return the same type" (with op:numeric-divide being the one exception). > That's an interesting point. How about SPARQL engines internally canonicalising datatpyes? is that an issue? What id the sum of two integers goes outside integer? Is that an issue? (probably not for these test cases, but in general?) This isn't about canonicalization in SPARQl engines as such. "1"^^xsd:int + "2"^^xsd:byte = "3"^^xsd:integer "1"^^xsd:int + "2"^^xsd:double = "3.0"^^xsd:double (the exact lexical form is not fixed) xsd:integer is unbounded (xsd:int is 32 bit). This all comes from F&O - it's not a SPARQL-specific issue. Andy
