I have a file which has lines like this.

area : 37.24;
power : 1.28, 2.73, 3.84;

I need to substitute each number with it's double (number*2).
Is there anyway I can do this in VIM?
I don't have perldo command in my version of VIM.

%s/[0-9.]\+/\=2.0*str2float(submatch(0))/g

-from-

[0-9.]\+    one or more digits or periods

-to-

\=  ...  evaluate following expression
2.0 ... obvious
*    ... also obvious
str2float(submatch(0))  take entire match and convert that string to a float

/g ...  as many matches as possible per line

HTH,
Chip Campbell
