I believe you were doing this to round off "money numbers": numbers
with exactly two digits after the decimal point. To do that, you need
a slightly different printf format:
printf "%%.02f = %.02f\n", $result;
The two percent signs at the left print as a real percent sign (so as
to print out the format specification itself for this example). Hope
this helps!
