Any ideas? I am attempting to write a script that uses sed.
If done this way it fails
- rmdec=“sed ‘s/…$//’”
- i1xmr=$(echo “$i1p/$apiresponse*1000” |bc -l |$rmdec)
But if i do it this way it works
- i1xmr=$(echo “$i1p/$apiresponse*1000” |bc -l | sed ‘s/…$//’)
So I need five digits after the decimal point, but then when I do the multiplication, I only want four digits in total. I did move “scale=” to five and that made the sed command in rmdec much shorter, but its still needed. I thought i could add “length=4” but that throws an error.
Multiply before you divide to keep precision:
1000 * $i1p / $apiresponseAh, that did the trick. Thanks
