Hi!

I have a script shell and I must do a calculation:

let c=7/4

echo $c => 1

and me I want 1,75

Is it possible to find 1,75 in shell?


Thinks!

I come back with an other question

a=1
c=$(printf "%s\n" 'scale = 2; 7/4' | bc)


when i do:

if [ $a -eq $c ]

it find the same number [ 1 -eq 1 ]

And I want compare [ 1 -eq 1.75 ] or [ 1 -eq 1,75 ]
Is it possible?
thanks

i tested you condition... on solaris/ksh it works...

you could also try
if [ $a == $c ]; then

g P

Thinks but I am on AIX... It don't work....
