Thanks Franklin,
it worked!!!
aju_kup,
I was seeking the upper integer i.e. the floor of any floating point value.
Thanks to both of you for your valuable help.!!!!

Hi all!
Hi all!
I am working with a problem to find the smallest floating point number that can be represented.
I am going in a loop ,stating with an initial value of 1.0 and then diving it by 10 each time thru the loop.
So the first time I am getting o.1 which I wanted.But from the next... (4 Replies)

Hi,
Could any one tell me how to compare to floating point no. using test command. As -eq option works on only intergers.
i=5.4
if
then
echo "equal"
else
echo "not equal"
fi
here output will be equal even though no. are unequal.
Thanks,

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:

I have a number, which I want to convert into the nearest floating number upto two places after the decimal point.
E.g.
1.2346 will become 1.23
but
1.2356 will become 1.24 .
Similarly
0.009 will be 0.01

Description
The and routines return the largest integer which is not greater than x for double and float data types, respectively.
The and routines return the smallest integer which is not less than x for double and float data types, respectively.
The and routines return the integer (represented as a floating-point number) of x with the fractional bits truncated for double and float
data types respectively.
The routine returns the absolute value |x|.
The routine returns the floating point remainder of the division of x by y: zero if y is zero or if x/y would overflow; otherwise the num-
ber f with the same sign as x, such that x = iy + f for some integer i, and |f| < |y|.
The routine returns the integer (represented as a double precision number) nearest x in the direction of the prevailing rounding mode.
In the default rounding mode, to nearest, is the integer nearest x with the additional stipulation that if |rint(x)-x|=1/2 then is even.
Other rounding modes can make act like or or round towards zero.
Another way to obtain an integer near x is to declare (in C)
double x; int k; k = x;
The C compiler rounds x towards 0 to get the integer k. Also note that, if x is larger than k can accommodate, the value of k and the
presence or absence of an integer overflow are hard to predict.
The routine is in libc.a rather than libm.a.
