Thanks Andy, that resolved the error, but returns $PERMINUTE as 0. It
should be something like .00067xxxxx. Is there a way to do that?
Farm it out to bc
echo "scale=10 ; 28.95 / 432000" | bc
Thanks again Andy. Is this what you mean?
#!/bin/sh
#PERMINUTE=$(( 29 / 432000 ))
PERMINUTE=$(echo "scale=10; (28.95 / 432000" | bc ))
echo "$PERMINUTE"
This gives me the following error:
./calc2.sh: line 4: syntax error near unexpected token `)'
./calc2.sh: line 4: `PERMINUTE=$(echo "scale=10; (28.95 / 432000" | bc ))'
I apparently am not following your meanings exactly.
Thanks,
Mike
