Convert into C program

Hi,

in this forum I was able to find a logic written by perderabo to write packed decimals. the code works fine. However, I would want to convert it to a c program. so as to do that I am not able to understand the below mentioned logic. Can someone please help me understand that?

Code:
if ((packswitch)) ; then
                char1=$dig
                octal=16#${char1}${char2}
                result=${octal#??}
                echo packing $olength $char1 $char2 $octal $result
                output[olength]=$(print -n \\${result})
                ((olength=olength-1))

        else
                char2=$dig
        fi

number_format - Format a number with grouped thousands

SYNOPSIS
string number_format (float $number, [int $decimals]) DESCRIPTION
string number_format (float $number, int $decimals, string $dec_point = ".", string $thousands_sep = ",") This function accepts either one, two, or four parameters (not three): If only one parameter is given, $number will be formatted without decimals, but with a comma (",") between every group of thousands. If two parameters are given, $number will be formatted with $decimals decimals with a dot (".") in front, and a comma (",") between every group of thousands. If all four parameters are given, $number will be formatted with $decimals decimals, $dec_point instead of a dot (".") before the decimals and $thousands_sep instead of a comma (",") between every group of thousands. PARAMETERS
o $number - The number being formatted. o $decimals - Sets the number of decimal points. o $dec_point - Sets the separator for the decimal point. o $thousands_sep - Sets the thousands separator. RETURN VALUES
A formatted version of $number. CHANGELOG
+--------+---------------------------------------------------+ |Version | | | | | | | Description | | | | +--------+---------------------------------------------------+ | 5.4.0 | | | | | | | This function now supports multiple bytes in | | | $dec_point and $thousands_sep. Only the first | | | byte of each separator was used in older ver- | | | sions. | | | | +--------+---------------------------------------------------+ EXAMPLES
Example #1 number_format(3) Example For instance, French notation usually use two decimals, comma (',') as decimal separator, and space (' ') as thousand separator. This is achieved with this line : <?php $number = 1234.56; // english notation (default) $english_format_number = number_format($number); // 1,235 // French notation $nombre_format_francais = number_format($number, 2, ',', ' '); // 1 234,56 $number = 1234.5678; // english notation without thousands separator $english_format_number = number_format($number, 2, '.', ''); // 1234.57 ?> SEE ALSO
