[jira] [Created] (DRILL-2064) Internal "Float4" and "Float8" names are confusing; rename using "Float" and "Double"

             Summary: Internal "Float4" and "Float8" names are confusing; rename using "Float" and "Double"
                 Key: DRILL-2064
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-2064
             Project: Apache Drill
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Daniel Barclay (Drill/MapR)


[For/from Jacques:]

The internal names (e.g., enumerations,  vector subtypes, function names) containing "Float4" and "Float8" are confusing since they don't correspond to type names "float" and "double" in Java, etc.

Things currently named using "Float4" should be renamed to names using "Float"; things currently named using "Float8" should be renamed using "Double".
