You get the same result in other programs, e.g. $ python -c 'print (0.2/5000)' $ echo | awk '{print 0.2/5000}' $ perl -e 'print 0.2/5000; print "\n"' They probably all use the "%g" format of the printf(3) family: ,---- | g, G The double argument is converted in style f or e (or F or E | for G conversions). The precision specifies the number of | significant digits. If the precision is missing, 6 digits | are given; if the precision is zero, it is treated as 1. | Style e is used if the exponent from its conversion is less | than -4 or greater than or equal to the precision. `---- Cheers, Sven
