I guess the author wants you to use the floor() function:
floor() finds the largest whole number (integer) less than val. This function
returns 1 if the largest whole number == val. or the fractional part of the number is zero.
hi all, i have the following problem using awk in a script
i want to read the values from a column with real numbers and calculate the mean.the problem is that when i use a statement such as this
num = $4
i cant find a way to convert the variable from string to floating point to perform... (7 Replies)
Hai,
Can you please guide me, to compare the floating point numbers.
Eg.
If
then
echo "value1 is grater "

This code is not working properly when i excuted with floating values or real numbers (13 Replies)
Hi,
I am compiling "HelloWorld" C progam on 32-bit CentOS and i want to execute it on 64-bit CentOS architecture.
For that i copied the a.out file from 32-bit to 64-bit machine, but while executing a.out file on 64bit machine I am getting "Floating point exception error".
But we can run... (3 Replies)

I have started using bash but this script which I am working on it, is in c chell. So here is my simple problem:
set x = 0.4124\0.234
echo $x
0.4124.0.234
Same operation in Bash gives me correct result in my terminal. So there is something with my c shell that is causing this behaviour.... (8 Replies)
I have the following code snippet in bash
if ]; then
minm=`echo "$diff" | bc`
fi
It works well for most of the cases. However lets say diff is -0.17 and minm is -0.0017. In such a case the comparison seems to fail. Is the correct way to compare a mixture of positive and... (12 Replies)

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.
