Hello echo manolis,

Could you please try following and let me know if this helps you.
Code:
awk -F, 'function check(var){var=var~/[[:digit:]]/?"%0.2f":(var~/[[:alpha:]]/?"%s":"");return var} {gsub(/[[:space:]]+,[[:space:]]+/,",",$0);a=check($2);b=check($4);printf(a "," b"\n",$2,$4)}' OFS=","   Input_file

Output will be as follows.
Code:
0.25,0.11
0.59,10.25
nd,8.46
10.46,n3d5
-12.46,-8.55

EDIT: Adding a non-one liner form of solution too successfully now.
Code:
awk -F, 'function check(var){
                                var=var~/[[:digit:]]/?"%0.2f":(var~/[[:alpha:]]/?"%s":"");
                                return var
                            }
                            {
                                gsub(/[[:space:]]+,[[:space:]]+/,",",$0);
                                a=check($2);
                                b=check($4);
                                printf(a "," b"\n",$2,$4)
                            }
        '    Input_file

Thanks,
R. Singh

xfs_estimate(8) 					      System Manager's Manual						   xfs_estimate(8)

NAME
xfs_estimate - estimate the space that an XFS filesystem will take SYNOPSIS
xfs_estimate [ -h? ] [ -b blocksize ] [ -i logsize ] [ -e logsize ] [ -v ] directory ... DESCRIPTION
For each directory argument, xfs_estimate estimates the space that directory would take if it were copied to an XFS filesystem. xfs_esti- mate does not cross mount points. The following definitions are used: KB = *1024 MB = *1024*1024 GB = *1024*1024*1024 The xfs_estimate options are: -b blocksize Use blocksize instead of the default blocksize of 4096 bytes. The modifier k can be used after the number to indicate multiplica- tion by 1024. For example, xfs_estimate -b 64k / requests an estimate of the space required by the directory / on an XFS filesystem using a blocksize of 64K (65536) bytes. -v Display more information, formatted. -h Display usage message. -? Display usage message. -i, -e logsize Use logsize instead of the default log size of 1000 blocks. -i refers to an internal log, while -e refers to an external log. The modifiers k or m can be used after the number to indicate multiplication by 1024 or 1048576, respectively. For example, xfs_estimate -i 1m / requests an estimate of the space required by the directory / on an XFS filesystem using an internal log of 1 megabyte. EXAMPLES
% xfs_estimate -e 10m /var/tmp /var/tmp will take about 4.2 megabytes with the external log using 2560 blocks or about 10.0 megabytes % xfs_estimate -v -e 10m /var/tmp directory bsize blocks megabytes logsize /var/tmp 4096 792 4.0MB 10485760 % xfs_estimate -v /var/tmp directory bsize blocks megabytes logsize /var/tmp 4096 3352 14.0MB 10485760 % xfs_estimate /var/tmp /var/tmp will take about 14.0 megabytes xfs_estimate(8)
