How to add following decimal point to a CSV value?

hi there I being trying to figure out way to add " .0" to an integer value in a csv using sed or awk with out success. just as a work around for 2147483647 32 bit limitation that influxdb is currently having



the data base will accept values and work fine if it has the XXX.0 attached but if only and integer format it caps the database at 2147483647


I already have a shell script that reads the csv and converts the epoch to timestamp
ie

Code:
epoch,tx,rx
1534522909,6666,55555
1534522910,6667,55556
timestamp,tx,rx
17 -8- 2018 16:21:49,6666,55555
17 -8- 2018 16:21:49,6667,55556

I just want to add addition scripting to add a following decimal point and 0



Code:
timestamp,tx,rx
17 -8- 2018 16:21:49,6666.0,55555.0
17 -8- 2018 16:21:49,6667.0,55556.0


thank you for your time
