awk if condition match and fix print decimal place
Hi All,
I have problem in the middle of implementing to users, whereby the complaint is all about the decimal place which is too long. I need two decimal places only, but the outcome from command is always fixed to 6.
See the sample :
before:
Code:
Sort Total
      Site    Sort  SortName   Parts   %/Total
----------------------------------------------
               9                1    0.06
              10               6    0.35

using command:
Code:
awk '$1 ==    10 {$2-=1;$3=$2/1720*100} 1' inputfile|sed 's/^10 /               10               /g'

result:
Code:
Sort Total
      Site    Sort  SortName   Parts   %/Total
----------------------------------------------
               9                1    0.06
              10               5 0.290698

The thing is, I need the 0.290698 above to just have 2 decimal places, become --> 0.29
THks !

Desire result:
Code:
Sort Total
      Site    Sort  SortName   Parts   %/Total
----------------------------------------------
               9                1    0.06
              10               5    0.29

Try:
Code:
awk '$1==10{$2--; $3=$2/17.2} 1' CONVFMT="%7.2f" file | sed 's/^10 /               10              /g'

or
Code:
awk '$1==10{sub($2 "[ \t]*" $3, sprintf("%d %7.2f", --$2, $2/17.2))}1' file

or
Code:
awk '$1==10{$2--; $3=$2/17.2; printf "%16d %15d %7.2f\n", $1, $2, $3; next}1'  file
