I run into a situation when integer result of 81 * 0.5 is 40 (expected 41) when using lrint() function.
When I use a simple +0.5 approach results are right.
The code is:
results are:
Using gcc ver 5.4.0 on Linux, running on 2 years old Xeon processor, if that matters. I checked floating point rounding defaults in compiler and it is a regular "round to the nearest integer" rule.
My question is - should I abandon rint-family functions and use +0.5 approach?
Hello again.
I'm trying to use BC to calculate some numbers in a shell script.
I want to have the numbers rounded off to 1 decimal place.
for example:
initsize=1566720
zipsize=4733
I'm trying to get the ratio between them. the equation is:
(($initsize-$zipsize)/$initsize)*100

Hi,
Can any one help me in finding a solution for rounding off to 2 decimal places.
I am using the following code:
VAR1=.01292105263157894736

The result I 'm getting is
1.29210526315789473600
But I need the output as 1.29

Hello,
I searched a lot on this Forum.
Please help me with the below problem.
I want to divide two numbers and the result should be the next nearest whole number.
E.G. Dividing 10.8/5 ideally gives 2.16. But the result should be 3 i.e. rounded off to the next whole number.
Any help will... (2 Replies)

Hi,
I am currently using tcsh
I am trying to round a decimal number to the ten-thousandths place
For instance:

Dear Experts,
I'm trying to find a way to round a number but in this way:

and also:
xargs printf "%1.0f"
However, they don't work for my above... (9 Replies)

llrintl
LRINT(3) BSD Library Functions Manual LRINT(3)NAME
llrint, llrintf, llrintl, lrint, lrintf, lrintl -- convert to integer
LIBRARY
Math Library (libm, -lm)
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
long long
llrint(double x);
long long
llrintf(float x);
long long
llrintl(long double x);
long
lrint(double x);
long
lrintf(float x);
long
lrintl(long double x);
DESCRIPTION
The lrint() function returns the integer nearest to its argument x according to the current rounding mode. If the rounded result is too
large to be represented as a long value, an invalid exception is raised and the return value is undefined. Otherwise, if x is not an inte-
ger, lrint() raises an inexact exception. When the rounded result is representable as a long, the expression lrint(x) is equivalent to
(long)rint(x) (although the former may be more efficient).
The llrint(), llrintf(), llrintl(), lrintf(), and lrintl() functions differ from lrint() only in their input and output types.
SEE ALSO lround(3), math(3), rint(3), round(3)STANDARDS
These functions conform to ISO/IEC 9899:1999 (``ISO C99'').
HISTORY
The llrint(), llrintf(), lrint(), and lrintf() routines first appeared in FreeBSD 5.4. The long double variants were introduced in
FreeBSD 8.0.
