This worked for me with ksh.
fa=12.123
fb=21.321
ans=$(($fa*$fb))
Are there any restrictions of floating point calculations in ksh?

I thought I move away from perl in favour of python. Any opinions?

Hello. I have a problem with AWK and floats below 0 in a script.
It may be simplified to this line (please, take into account that my "locale" is Spanish, so the system will read "," as decimal separator):
echo -1,25 2,55745 0,33 ,278 | awk '{print $1+1, $2+1, $3+1, $4+1}'... getting:
