There is one inconsistency in MySQL in handling @code[ENUM] and @code[SET]
types when it comes to @code{MIN()}, @code{MAX()} and other aggregating
functions. MySQL will compare values based on string values of the columns,
instead of it's relative position. This will be fixed in future.

mysql> SELECT student_name, MIN(test_score), MAX(test_score) mysql> SELECT student_name, MIN(test_score), MAX(test_score)
