Does anyone have a simple way of doing floating point ("fp") division? For example, if I divide 3 by 5, I can get 0.6. The built-in calc (`bc`) will perform fp multiplication, but not division, at least not straight-up (i.e., starting bc and just typing in 3/5).
I am trying to do this using... (1 Reply)
Hi all!
Hi all!
I am working with a problem to find the smallest floating point number that can be represented.
I am going in a loop ,stating with an initial value of 1.0 and then diving it by 10 each time thru the loop.
So the first time I am getting o.1 which I wanted.But from the next... (4 Replies)
Hi, guys,
today, I have copied a simple script which runs correctly on a computer to another one. But, the latter informs me:
Floating point exception!
@ ./command_module a b c
where command_module is the module compiled by myself.
So, I have fixed it by following steps:

Dear all,
I have the following question. Let's say that I have the following script
#!/bin/bash
value=0.4987865
a=` printf "%6.2f" $value `
b=`echo $value + $value | bc -l`
echo $a
echo $b
exit
And the exit is:
0,00
.9975730
Thus, the problem is that the printf order does not... (2 Replies)

Heyas
I have a script (vhs - video handler script, using ffmpeg) to encode videos.
It also encodes a dvd, but until now just non-copy-protected ones, so i've tried to add/implement a vobcopy wrapper to be used by my script.
At first it looked quite fine, but when changing from the first VOB... (9 Replies)
Hello,
I have often found bash to be difficult when it comes to floating point numbers. I have data with rows of tab delimited floating point numbers. I need to find the smallest number in each row that is not 0.0. Numbers can be negative and they do not come in any particular order for a given... (9 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)

sccs-comb(1) User Commands sccs-comb(1)NAME
sccs-comb, comb - combine SCCS deltas
SYNOPSIS
/usr/ccs/bin/comb [-os] [-csid-list] [-psid] s.filename...
DESCRIPTION
comb generates a shell script (see sh(1)) that you can use to reconstruct the indicated s.files. This script is written to the standard
output.
If a directory name is used in place of the s.filename argument, the comb command applies to all s.files in that directory. Unreadable
s.files produce an error; processing continues with the next file (if any). The use of `-' as the s.filename argument indicates that the
names of files are to be read from the standard input, one s.file per line.
If no options are specified, comb preserves only the most recent (leaf) delta in a branch, and the minimal number of ancestors needed to
preserve the history.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-o For each `get -e' generated, access the reconstructed file at the release of the delta to be created. Otherwise, the recon-
structed file is accessed at the most recent ancestor. The use of -o may decrease the size of the reconstructed s.file. It
may also alter the shape of the delta tree of the original file.
-s Generate scripts to gather statistics, rather than combining deltas. When run, the shell scripts report: the file name,
size (in blocks) after combining, original size (also in blocks), and the percentage size change, computed by the formula:
100 * ( original - combined ) / original
This option can be used to calculate the space that will be saved, before actually doing the combining.
-csid-list Include the indicated list of deltas. All other deltas are omitted. sid-list is a comma-separated list of SCCS delta IDs
(SIDs). To specify a range of deltas, use a `-' separator instead of a comma, between two SIDs in the list.
-pSID The SID of the oldest delta to be preserved.

BUGS
comb may rearrange the shape of the tree of deltas. It may not save any space; in fact, it is possible for the reconstructed file to actu-
ally be larger than the original.
