[SR-Users] Floating Point in variables and arithmetic

20 Sep 2023

Hi

I need to take in a priority (from 0 to 100, 0 being highest prio) and 
convert this into a Q value between 0 and 1.0

My idea was to simply do:

q_value = 1 - ($var(priority)/100)

However, it seems Kamailio only deals in integers in the config. A 
Previous post suggested using xavp vars, but this ends up the same result.

Apart from doing a pseudo SQL query "SELECT 1 - (20/100)" is there any 
way within the config I can do such maths?

Thanks
