Integer is a column of whole numbers: 1,3,5,7,9...
Float(ing point) is a fractional number: 4.2, 1.4143, 42.0
Text : letters and numbers (Math is not done on these)
It has to do on how the data is stored and manipulated
If you did not choose at column creation time You got the default setting (WRONG for this). You need to delete the column, exit, the come back and add the correct type from the pull down list (below the names)
