Operating Systems OS X (Apple) A fixed point basic calculator for DASH. Post 303025587 by Corona688 on Tuesday 6th of November 2018 10:34:41 AM

My suggestion would be to eliminate these floating point conversions, and just use integer math. For three decimal points you'd do

Code:
SIGN="+"
if [ "$NUM" -lt 0 ]
then
        NUM=$((-NUM))
        SIGN="-"
fi

printf "%s%d.%d" "$SIGN" "$((NUM/100))" "$((NUM%100))"
