help with doing calculations on data

Dear All, I have a long list like this: 337 375 364 389 443 578 1001 20100 . . . . etc I would like to substract each value from the first entry which in this case is 337 and report it in a separate column. So the expected output looks like 337 0

LEARN ABOUT OPENSOLARIS

expm1f

expm1(3M)						  Mathematical Library Functions						 expm1(3M)

NAME

       expm1, expm1f, expm1l - compute exponential function

SYNOPSIS

       c99 [ flag... ] file... -lm [ library... ]
       #include <math.h>

       double expm1(double x);

       float expm1f(float x);

       long double expm1l(long double x);

DESCRIPTION

       These functions compute e^x-1.0.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon successful completion, these functions return e^x-1.0.

       If x is NaN, a NaN is returned.

       If x is +-0, +-0 is returned.

       If x is -Inf, -1 is returned.

       If x is +Inf, x is returned.

ERRORS

       These functions will fail if:

       Range Error    The result overflows.

		      If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, the overflow floating-point exception is raised.

USAGE

       The value of expm1(x) can be more accurate than exp(x)-1.0 for small values of x.

       The expm1() and log1p(3M) functions are useful for financial calculations of ((1+x)^n-1)/x, namely:

	 expm1(n * log1p(x))/x

       when  x	is very small (for example, when performing calculations with a small daily interest rate).  These functions also simplify writing
       accurate inverse hyperbolic functions.

       An application wanting to check for exceptions should call feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT) before  calling	these  functions.  On  return,	if
       fetestexcept(FE_INVALID	|  FE_DIVBYZERO  |  FE_OVERFLOW  |  FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an exception has been raised. An application should
       either examine the return value or check the floating point exception flags to detect exceptions.
