For rounding, I add 0.5 before truncating it. Decimal places less than 0.5000 will add up to less than 1, and be truncated, higher numbers will add one whole number then truncate.

I have managed to round up numbers by using the following command:
echo "5.54" | awk '{printf "%.0f\n", $1}'

How can I round up all the numbers in a column in a file and print the lines with the new calculated totals?

It seems that perl sprintf uses the round-to-even method:
foreach my $i ( 0.5, 1.5, 2.5, 3.5 ) {
printf "$i -> %.0f\n", $i;
}
__END__
0.5 -> 0
1.5 -> 2
2.5 -> 2
3.5 -> 4
4.5 -> 4
Where we probably wants to use round-half-up, i.e. output should be as below:
0.5 -> 1
1.5 -> 2... (8 Replies)

IGAWK(1) Utility Commands IGAWK(1)
NAME
igawk - gawk with include files
SYNOPSIS
igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ...
igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ...
DESCRIPTION
Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include files'' to gawk(1).
AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in addition, you may have lines like
@include getopt.awk
in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path.
OPTIONS
See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports.
EXAMPLES
cat << EOF > test.awk
@include getopt.awk
BEGIN {
while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1)
...
}
EOF
igawk -f test.awk
