I have a Postgresql table column which's type is numeric(20,4). When I play with the data through rails console, ActiveRecord display the values in scientific notation.
All I can think of adding attribute :column_name, :float to the related modal, but not sure if there will be any side effects because of it.
So the question is; does anyone one if there is anything I can do to make it easier for reading the data on rails console and do not have any side effects on the app itself?

Easy to read scientific notation on Rails console
You can monkeypatch specifically BigDecimal class specifically for console
development.rb
  console do
    class BigDecimal
      def inspect
        to_f
      end
    end
  end
