Sum the fields with 6 decimal places - getting only 2 decimal places as output
I used the below script to Sum up a field in a file based on some unique values. But the problem is when it is summing up the units, it is truncating to 2 decimals and not 6 decimals as in the input file (Input file has the units with up to 6 Decimals – Sample data below, when the units in the 2 rows below highlighted in red are added, I only get 2 decimal places 18.34).
