NAME numcmp -- compare two numbers SYNOPSIS numcmp num1 num2 DESCRIPTION numcmp converts both arguments to signed doubles, compares the two, and prints "less", "equal", or "greater" if num1 is less than, equal to, or greater than num2. The shell doesn't grok floating-point numbers, and sometimes it's hard to deal with negative numbers; this program makes dealing with both of those a lot easier. EXIT STATUS numcmp will exit with one of the following values: 0 success 1 error(s) AUTHOR Adam Moskowitz
