I don't think this is a case of "never compare floats for equality", as: 12345678901234567890.0 == 12345678901234567890.1 The number is simply too big, even for a float, to handle reliably. In fact number_format(12345678901234567890.0, 1, '', '') == '123456789012345671680' > > -- > hartmut > > > -- > PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php > -- -- Tjerk -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
