Thanks,
Unfortunately, if i printf at this stage it will go straight to output and I need all the data in a specific format, not just that one column.
Remember also that this integer will eventually end up converted to a string by the array...
I need a way without using printf

Hi !
I'm looking for a way to transform certain floating point numbers in a one-line, variable length file to integers.
I can do this in a crude way with sed :
sed -e 's/0\.\(\):/\1:/g' -e 's/0\.0\(\):/\1:/g' -e 's/1\.000:/100:/g' myfile ... but this doesn't handle the rounding correctly.

I had a person bring an interesting problem to me that appears to involve some sort of rounding inside awk. I've verified this with awk and nawk on Solaris as well as with gawk 3.1.5 on a Linux box.
The original code fragment he brought me was thus:
for (index=0; index < 1; index=index+.1)

explain_printf_or_die(3) Library Functions Manual explain_printf_or_die(3)
NAME
explain_printf_or_die - formatted output conversion and report errors
SYNOPSIS
#include <libexplain/printf.h>
int explain_printf_or_die(const char *format);
int explain_printf_on_error(const char *format);
DESCRIPTION
The explain_printf_or_die function is used to call the printf(3) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr, obtained
from the explain_printf(3) function, and then the process terminates by calling exit(EXIT_FAILURE).
The explain_printf_on_error function is used to call the printf(3) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr,
obtained from the explain_printf(3) function, but still returns to the caller.
format The format, exactly as to be passed to the printf(3) system call.
RETURN VALUE
The explain_printf_or_die function only returns on success, see printf(3) for more information. On failure, prints an explanation and
exits, it does not return.
The explain_printf_on_error function always returns the value return by the wrapped printf(3) system call.
EXAMPLE
The explain_printf_or_die function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the following example:
int result = explain_printf_or_die(format);
