The way printf picks up arguments is as follows:
%d = Pick up 2 bytes of x (which is an int) = OK
%d = Pick up 2 bytes of i (which is an int) = OK
%s = Pick up a pointer to a string argv[i] = OK
%d = Pick up 2 bytes of the 8 bytes that correspond to the value of the
     expressiion "(double) x /MAXVAL".
%d = Pick up the next 2 bytes from the previous double-precision value
%d = Pick up the 4th and 5th bytes of the double-precision value
\n = Start a new line (which ignores the 7th and 8th bytes of the first
     double precision result, and ignore the 2 bytes of the atoi value,
     and ignore the 8 bytes of the 2nd double-precision floating point value.

The problem is in the use of %d with double.  You should be using %f
for double, however you don't need double in this program; use ints and
longs instead.
