Comparing Integers (I think)

Hi, I can't figure out what I'm missing. I'm running a query to see if there are any streams recording on my DVR before starting a scripted update. I'm guessing that it is viewing $VIDEO as a string instead of an int. I've tried everything I saw on google but it still comes back as $VIDEO is...

Wonderful evening to all of you! My problem has to possible starting points. Well, not really, but getting to either one is no problem at all. So i got either a string in the format of "1920x1080" or simply the integers X = 1920 and Y = 1080. When I am done, I would like to have an output...

Use Perl In Bash Script To Compare Floationg Points

Is there a way to compare two floating points numbers in a bash script using perl? I've tried just using a bash if statement and it doesn't seem to support floating point numbers. Can the perl line read vars from bash then output a var to bash? a=1.1 #from bash b=1.5 #from bash if...

Using write() with integers in C

I'm trying to write an integer to a file using the write() function, but write() requires the parameter to be written to be a const void*. How would I go about doing this? also: using itoa() produces a " warning: implicit declaration of function 'itoa' " even though i have #included stdlib.h

Gnuplot question: how to plot 3D points as colored points in map view?

I have a simple gnuplot question. I have a set of points (list of x,y,z values; irregularly spaced, i.e. no grid) that I want to plot. I want the plot to look like this: - points in map view (no 3D view) - color of each point should depend on its z-value. - I want to define my own color scale -...

NAME

       values.h, values - machine-dependent values

SYNOPSIS

       #include <values.h>

DESCRIPTION

       This file contains a set of manifest constants, conditionally defined for particular processor architectures.

       The  model  assumed  for  integers  is binary representation (one's or two's complement), where the sign is represented by the value of the
       high-order bit.

       BITS(type)		       The number of bits in a specified type (for example, int).

       HIBITS			       The value of a short integer with only the high-order bit set.

       HIBITL			       The value of a long integer with only the high-order bit set.

       HIBITI			       The value of a regular integer with only the high-order bit set.

       MAXSHORT 		       The maximum value of a signed short integer.

       MAXLONG			       The maximum value of a signed long integer.

       MAXINT			       The maximum value of a signed regular integer.

       MAXFLOAT, LN_MAXFLOAT	       The maximum value of a single-precision floating-point number, and its natural logarithm.

       MAXDOUBLE, LN_MAXDOUBLE	       The maximum value of a double-precision floating-point number, and its natural logarithm.

       MINFLOAT, LN_MINFLOAT	       The minimum positive value of a single-precision floating-point number, and its natural logarithm.

       MINDOUBLE, LN_MINDOUBLE	       The minimum positive value of a double-precision floating-point number, and its natural logarithm.

       FSIGNIF			       The number of significant bits in the mantissa of a single-precision floating-point number.

       DSIGNIF			       The number of significant bits in the mantissa of a double-precision floating-point number.
