Is there any other setting i.e Built in variables. or any other setting that affects how the string "000" is converted to 0 automatically in windows and not in Unix.
Cannot recall, but ....... CONVFMT is somewhat related, but I could not get it working as expected.
Here's another scenario:
The above outputs "NO" for awk, nawk, /usr/xpg4/bin/awk and gawk [on Solaris].
The above outputs "YES" for all the awk's mentioned above.
This is somewhat strange, but doing 'man nawk' on Solaris:
Quote:
expr == expr Equal to
............. other expressions......
Each expression has either a string value, a numeric value
or both. Except as stated for specific contexts, the value
of an expression is implicitly converted to the type needed
for the context in which it is used. A string value is con-
verted to a numeric value by the equivalent of the following
calls:
A numeric value that is exactly equal to the value of an
integer is converted to a string by the equivalent of a call
to the sprintf function with the string %d as the fmt argu-
ment and the numeric value being converted as the first and
only expr argument. Any other numeric value is converted to
a string by the equivalent of a call to the sprintf function
with the value of the variable CONVFMT as the fmt argument
and the numeric value being converted as the first and only
expr argument.
Based on my examples, it seems like under Solaris the "context" of yje comparision is defined by the type of the LEFT expression.
Actually I just tried the same test under MKS's awk on Windows and does work the SAME as it does on Solaris. And also it behaves the same under Cygwin's awk and gawk under Windows as well - well, at least for the test scenarios I've outlined above.
Hi,
I need to be able to take an unsigned long value and convert it to a string that is separted by commas.
So for example, if i have the unsigned long value 1372516, I'm supposed to somehow get "1,372,516".
Can someone please give me the right direction to go about doing this? Thanks. (3 Replies)

Hi,
I would like to convert the output from awk function to date and print on the screen.
Example : echo "Start Date: May 24 2010" | gawk -F": " '{print $2}'
Output : May 04 2010
I want this to be converted to 2010/05/24
Can i use date function here and how?
Thanks,

Can someone explain whats happening here:
$ awk 'BEGIN {print (2.5 - 1)}'
1,5
2.5 - 1 is correctly calculated to 1,5 (using european locale)
$ echo "2.5" | awk '{temp = $1 - 1; print temp}'
1
If i now pipe the string 2.5 through awk it seems at it truncates 2.5 to 2?

tcl_exprdouble
Tcl_ExprLong(3) Tcl Library Procedures Tcl_ExprLong(3)__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________NAME
Tcl_ExprLong, Tcl_ExprDouble, Tcl_ExprBoolean, Tcl_ExprString - evaluate an expression
SYNOPSIS
#include <tcl.h>
int
Tcl_ExprLong(interp, expr, longPtr)
int
Tcl_ExprDouble(interp, expr, doublePtr)
int
Tcl_ExprBoolean(interp, expr, booleanPtr)
int
Tcl_ExprString(interp, expr)
ARGUMENTS
Tcl_Interp *interp (in) Interpreter in whose context to evaluate expr.
const char *expr (in) Expression to be evaluated.
long *longPtr (out) Pointer to location in which to store the integer value of the expression.
int *doublePtr (out) Pointer to location in which to store the floating-point value of the expression.
int *booleanPtr (out) Pointer to location in which to store the 0/1 boolean value of the expression.
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
These four procedures all evaluate the expression given by the expr argument and return the result in one of four different forms. The
expression can have any of the forms accepted by the expr command. Note that these procedures have been largely replaced by the object-
based procedures Tcl_ExprLongObj, Tcl_ExprDoubleObj, Tcl_ExprBooleanObj, and Tcl_ExprObj. Those object-based procedures evaluate an
expression held in a Tcl object instead of a string. The object argument can retain an internal representation that is more efficient to
execute.
The interp argument refers to an interpreter used to evaluate the expression (e.g. for variables and nested Tcl commands) and to return
error information.
For all of these procedures the return value is a standard Tcl result: TCL_OK means the expression was successfully evaluated, and
TCL_ERROR means that an error occurred while evaluating the expression. If TCL_ERROR is returned then the interpreter's result will hold a
message describing the error. If an error occurs while executing a Tcl command embedded in the expression then that error will be
returned.
If the expression is successfully evaluated, then its value is returned in one of four forms, depending on which procedure is invoked.
Tcl_ExprLong stores an integer value at *longPtr. If the expression's actual value is a floating-point number, then it is truncated to an
integer. If the expression's actual value is a non-numeric string then an error is returned.
Tcl_ExprDouble stores a floating-point value at *doublePtr. If the expression's actual value is an integer, it is converted to floating-
point. If the expression's actual value is a non-numeric string then an error is returned.
Tcl_ExprBoolean stores a 0/1 integer value at *booleanPtr. If the expression's actual value is an integer or floating-point number, then
they store 0 at *booleanPtr if the value was zero and 1 otherwise. If the expression's actual value is a non-numeric string then it must
be one of the values accepted by Tcl_GetBoolean such as "yes" or "no", or else an error occurs.
Tcl_ExprString returns the value of the expression as a string stored in the interpreter's result.
