Floating Point Numbers in c shell!

I have started using bash but this script which I am working on it, is in c chell. So here is my simple problem:
Code:
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. Is there solution to this problem?
