Those coercions have been removed because they frequently caused surprising behaviors. However, the string concatenation operator (<TT CLASS="LITERAL" >||</TT >) still accepts non-string input, so long as at least one input is of a string type, as shown in <A HREF="functions-string.html#FUNCTIONS-STRING-SQL" >Table 9-6</A >.
