Altering Column Date Types

Hi,
I can't find anything in the docs about this. I want to alter a column in
a table, which is currently an INTEGER, in order that it be FLOAT.

family=# \d debtors
Table "debtors"
Column | Type | Modifiers
-------------+---------------+-----------
first_name | character(15) |
second_name | character(15) |
how_much | integer |
city | character(10) |
country | character(2) |

Is this possible ? All that I can see, are changing column names, changing
their defaults (if any), but not to change the data type.

Thanks.

D.
