Error Using bc to assign value

Friends here is code which is used to add floating point using bc, but I m not getting any output instead some errors.

Code:
1 #!/bin/bash

 
  4 if [ -c /proc/$$/fd/0 ]
  5 then
  6    echo "Our input is from a Device"
  7         while read myline
  8         do
  9
 10         total= `echo $total + $myline |bc`
 11         #((total=$total+ $myline))
 12         done
 13
 14 elif [ -p /proc/$$/fd/0 ]
 15 then
 16
 17    echo "Our input is from a pipe"
 18         while read myline2
 19         do
 20         total= `echo $total + $myline |bc`
 21         #((total= $total+ $myline2))
 22         done
 23 elif [ -f /proc/$$/fd/0 ]
 24 then
 25
 26    echo "Our input is from a file"
 27         while read myline3
 28         do
 29         add=+
 30         $(($total $add $myline))| bc
 31         #echo $total $myline
 32         #total= echo `$total $add $myline |bc`
 33         #((total= $total+ $myline))
 34         done
 35
 36
37
38   echo "Error"
 39         break;
 40 fi

MTBL_INFO(1)															      MTBL_INFO(1)

NAME
mtbl_info - display information about an MTBL file SYNOPSIS
mtbl_info FILE [FILE]... DESCRIPTION
mtbl_info(1) displays the following information about the MTBL files specified on the command line. file name -- the name of the MTBL file. file size -- the total size of the MTBL file, in bytes. index bytes -- the total number of bytes and proportion of the total file size consumed by the index. data block bytes -- the total number of bytes and proportion of the total file size consumed by data blocks. data block size -- the maximum size of an uncompressed data block. data block count -- the total number of data blocks. entry count -- the total number of key-value entries. key bytes -- the total number of bytes that all keys in the file would occupy if stored end-to-end in a byte array with no delimiters. value bytes -- the total number of bytes that all values in the file would occupy if stored end-to-end in a byte array with no delimiters. compression algorithm -- the algorithm used to compress data blocks. Possible values are "none", "snappy" and "zlib". compactness -- a rough metric comparing the total number of bytes in the key-value entries with the total size of the MTBL file. It is calculated as (file size) / (key bytes + value bytes), and thus takes into account the gains of data block compression and prefix key compression against the overhead of the index, trailer, and data block offset arrays. 05/29/2012 MTBL_INFO(1)
