question: public static String normalizeColumnValueForItsDataType ( String value , CarbonDimension dimension ) { try { Object parsedValue = null ; switch ( dimension . getDataType ( ) ) { case DECIMAL : return parseStringToBigDecimal ( value , dimension ) ; case INT : case LONG : parsedValue = normalizeIntAndLongValues ( value , dimension . getDataType ( ) ) ; break ; case DOUBLE : parsedValue = Double . parseDouble ( value ) ; break ; default : return value ; } if ( null != parsedValue ) { return value ; } return null ; } catch ( Exception e ) { return null ; } }
target:  This method will parse a given string value corresponding to its data type
