I'm confused as to how to handle floating point numbers in shell scripts. Is there a way to convert a number (string) read into a shell variable so that it can be used as a floating point decimal for calculation purposes? Or am I stuck with integrating C or Perl into my script?
Ex:

First, this is bash (3.2.17), on a Mac, 10.5.7.
What I'm trying to do is look at a list of users, and check to see if each exists. If they do, do some more stuff, if they don't, drop them into an error file.
So, my user list is:
foo - exists
bar - does not exist
blah - does not exist

git-symbolic-ref
GIT-SYMBOLIC-REF(1) Git Manual GIT-SYMBOLIC-REF(1)NAME
git-symbolic-ref - Read, modify and delete symbolic refs
SYNOPSIS
git symbolic-ref [-m <reason>] <name> <ref>
git symbolic-ref [-q] [--short] <name>
git symbolic-ref --delete [-q] <name>
DESCRIPTION
Given one argument, reads which branch head the given symbolic ref refers to and outputs its path, relative to the .git/ directory.
Typically you would give HEAD as the <name> argument to see which branch your working tree is on.
Given two arguments, creates or updates a symbolic ref <name> to point at the given branch <ref>.
Given --delete and an additional argument, deletes the given symbolic ref.
A symbolic ref is a regular file that stores a string that begins with ref: refs/. For example, your .git/HEAD is a regular file whose
contents is ref: refs/heads/master.
OPTIONS -d, --delete
Delete the symbolic ref <name>.
-q, --quiet
Do not issue an error message if the <name> is not a symbolic ref but a detached HEAD; instead exit with non-zero status silently.
--short
When showing the value of <name> as a symbolic ref, try to shorten the value, e.g. from refs/heads/master to master.
-m
Update the reflog for <name> with <reason>. This is valid only when creating or updating a symbolic ref.
NOTES
In the past, .git/HEAD was a symbolic link pointing at refs/heads/master. When we wanted to switch to another branch, we did ln -sf
refs/heads/newbranch .git/HEAD, and when we wanted to find out which branch we are on, we did readlink .git/HEAD. But symbolic links are
not entirely portable, so they are now deprecated and symbolic refs (as described above) are used by default.
git symbolic-ref will exit with status 0 if the contents of the symbolic ref were printed correctly, with status 1 if the requested name is
not a symbolic ref, or 128 if another error occurs.
