When unloading floating-point number columns to CSV or JSON files, Snowflake truncates the values to approximately 15 significant digits with 9 digits following the decimal point, which can be represented as (15,9). This ensures a balance between accuracy and efficiency in representing floating-point numbers in text-based formats, which is essential for data interchange and processing applications that consume these files.
