I think we should make it clear that what datatypes are supported in carbondata.

these types are confused (int or integer, short or smallint, long or bigint, double or numeric)

some datatypes are not supported now, (numeric, integer, short, smallint, long, numeric).

We should tell users what datatypes are supported in docs which is not existed now.

We need a doc like https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+Types

I suggest that we support (string, int, smallint, bigint, float, double, decimal, timestamp, array, struct) at first.
