This test will fail where a < 1.

Unless you're using a really new ksh, numeric comparison doesn't work on numbers with decimal points.
Huh? Floating point support, what you call numbers with decimal points, has been available in ksh93 since 1993.
If you want to do floating point arithmetic from within a bash script, you need to use an external utility such as bc. See
