>             Project: Apache MADlib
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Module: Linear Regression

>            Priority: Minor

> Linear regression training results in 2 output tables (*neither are optional*): 
>  * The *primary* output table, that includes the computed coefficients.
>  * A *summary* output table, that contains a single line.
> +Scenario+
> Running the linear regression training in postgresql on an input table which has *more than 2^31 records* within it (even if a grouping column is specified), fails due to an "*integer out of range*" exception.
> +Source+
> *The summary table* has a column that stores *the total number of records* involved in the computation. The column's data type is a *singed integer*. However, the total number of records is computed as a *BIGINT*. Therefore, when the total number of records in the input table is beyond the range of a signed integer (i.e., 2^31), an "integer out of range" exception is thrown.
> +Solution+
> A simple solution is to change the data type of the column from a *signed integer* into a *BIGINT*. 
> +Test+
> We have executed the linear regression training function with and without the suggested modification on an input table having between 2^31-2^32 records. Without the modification, an integer out of range exception was thrown. After modifying the code as suggested, it worked perfectly.
