Hello!
I want to evaluate some mathematical expressions in a script and I try to use 'expr' command.
Unfortunatally, when I have, for example,
expr 8.2 + 6
the result is 'expr: non-numeric argument'
Why ?
I work on SunOs 5.7.
Thanks in advance

i have been told that 'let' is faster than 'expr' in terms of performance.
Is this correct? if yes, why is it so?
i am not able to see any performance difference in small arithmetic operations.

xml::libxml::regexp5.18
XML::LibXML::RegExp(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation XML::LibXML::RegExp(3)NAME
XML::LibXML::RegExp - XML::LibXML::RegExp - interface to libxml2 regular expressions
SYNOPSIS
use XML::LibXML;
my $compiled_re = XML::LibXML::RegExp->new('[0-9]{5}(-[0-9]{4})?');
if ($compiled_re->isDeterministic()) { ... }
if ($compiled_re->matches($string)) { ... }
$compiled_re = XML::LibXML::RegExp->new( $regexp_str );
$bool = $compiled_re->matches($string);
$bool = $compiled_re->isDeterministic();
DESCRIPTION
This is a perl interface to libxml2's implementation of regular expressions, which are used e.g. for validation of XML Schema simple types
(pattern facet).
new()
$compiled_re = XML::LibXML::RegExp->new( $regexp_str );
The constructor takes a string containing a regular expression and returns a compiled regexp object.
matches($string)
$bool = $compiled_re->matches($string);
Given a string value, returns a true value if the value is matched by the compiled regular expression.
isDeterministic()
$bool = $compiled_re->isDeterministic();
Returns a true value if the regular expression is deterministic; returns false otherwise. (See the definition of determinism in the XML
spec (<http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#determinism>))
