Rounding
Rounding!
Try this...
awk 'BEGIN {printf("%.50f\n", 326.4*100)}'
and you should see something like...
32639.99999999999636202119290828704833984375000000000000
Including the int function simply rounds the output down to 32639. 'int' does not round to the nearest integer
printf (or sprintf) rounds by default when using %f, so without the int, it will display 32640.
HTH.

As we know, a function returns a value and that value is saved somwhere. like
int Sum( int x, int y )
{
return x + y;
}
Total = Sum( 10, 20 );
The value 30 is saved in variable Total.
Now the question is, what int value does the function main return, and where is it... (5 Replies)

lround(3M) lround(3M)
NAME
lround(), lroundf(), lroundl(), lroundw(), lroundq() - round to long int functions
SYNOPSIS
HP Integrity Server Only
DESCRIPTION
rounds its argument to the nearest integral value. An argument exactly halfway between two integers is rounded away from zero, regardless
of the current rounding direction. Rounding away from zero also applies to the functions, and
is equivalent to except that it rounds to instead of
Integrity Server Only
is a version of it takes a argument.

is an version of it takes an argument.
is equivalent to on HP-UX systems.
USAGE
To use these functions, compile either with the default option or with the and options.
To use (for Integrity servers) or compile also with the option.
Make sure your program includes Link in the math library by specifying on the compiler or linker command line.
For more information, see the at the following site:
RETURN VALUE
If the rounded value is outside the range of the numeric result is the maximum or minimum value and the invalid floating-point exception is
raised. On Integrity servers, if the rounded value is outside the range of the numeric result is the minimum value.
When raises no other floating-point exception and the result differs from the argument, the function may raise the inexact floating-point
exception.
ERRORS
No errors are defined.
