Sure,

So this part below will re-evaluate the value of $NF for every line read. The value of $NF being the last field.
Code:
awk '$NF=


For this part, ideally it should be enclosed in brackets. This is what the value of $NF is being set to. It is using the conditional (ternary) operators ?: to set the value of $NF to int($NF) if $NF is already equal to int($NF), so basically if it is already an integer and not a decimal, don't change it. If $NF is not equal to int($NF), i.e. Is a decimal, then set $NF to int($NF)+1. The int function is essentially rounding down the number.
Code:
$NF==int($NF)?int($NF):int($NF)+1'


This will set both the field separator (FS), same as doing - F, and the output field separator (OFS) to a comma.
Code:
OFS=, FS=,

And lastly, awk will perform it's default action of printing the lines it performs the operation on.

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 SEE ALSO
