+      # This method fetches the scale associated with a specified column for a
+      # ResultSet object.  Firebird implements some floating point types with
+      # integral storage and a negative scale.  For example, depending on
+      # your platform
+      #
+      #    SELECT 1.003 FROM RDB$DATABASE
+      #
+      # may return a ResultSet, the first and only column of which has
+      # a base type of :BIGINT but a scale of -3.  (Fetches of the actual
+      # value will correctly return a ruby Float.)
+      #
+      # ==== Parameters
+      # column::  A reference to the column number to fetch the details for.
