Calculate With Decimal Numbers - Mikrotik Script RouterOS

This is a script to do any math operation (+, -, *, and /) with decimal numbers and/or integers in RouterOS. Make sure to copy the text below EXACTLY and paste into a blank Mikrotik script's source. There are no command dependencies, just scripting syntax.

To use it, it's simply a matter of setting the decimals and decimalop global variables from another script or the console.

3.x version
--Doug 06:26, 27 July 2009 (EEST) Update: internally remove leading zeros when calculating

# Performs operations on decimal numbers
# This script can be run from command line or other script.
# To run, set global variables then run this script
#
# Global variables (input):
# decimalop = math operator ( +, -, *, or / )
# decimalplaces = decimal point places (0 = no decimal point)
# decimals = string of decimal numbers seperated by spaces (non-negative (-))
#
# Global variables (output):
# decimalresult = result of calculation, "err" if error
#
# Example:
#   add 3 numbers (4.32, 28 and 0.12):
#        :global decimalop "+"
#        :global decimals "4.32 28 0.21"
#        /system script run 
#        :put $decimalresut
