Those results you get are NOT incorrect. If you round using 2 decimals, of course that's what you get. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-15 11:25:09] oliver at teqneers dot de this is an example of the comment block of the round documentation (http://de.php.net/manual/en/function.round.php): <?php printf("0.285 - %s <br> ",round(0.285,2)); // incorrect result 0.28 printf("1.285 - %s <br> ",round(1.285,2)); // correct result 1.29 printf("1.255 - %s <br><br>",round(1.255,2)); // incorrect result 1.25 ?> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-15 08:47:36] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Can you please provide a short PHP code example which fails because of this..? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-14 10:46:19] oliver at teqneers dot de Description: ------------ Because of the nature of floats to be not exact enough in binary system, PHP uses a kind of fuzzy login to round more precisely turning on PHP_ROUND_FUZZ in some cases. The problem is the "configure" check. The check does not work for AMD nor INTEL 64bit CPUs. The number to test against is not sufficient. So maybe it is possible to add or change it??? Reproduce code: --------------- #include <math.h> /* keep this out-of-line to prevent use of gcc inline floor() */ double somefn(double n) { return floor(n*pow(10,2) + 0.5); } int main() { return somefn(0.045)/10.0 != 0.5; } this will return 1 on a 32bit but 0 on a 64bit engine. Expected result: ---------------- it should also fail on a 64bit and return 1. The following code would actually work on 64bit, because it will test 0.45 as well as 0.285: #include <math.h> /* keep this out-of-line to prevent use of gcc inline floor() */ double somefn(double n) { return floor(n*pow(10,2) + 0.5); } int main() { return (somefn(0.285)/100.0 != 0.29) || (somefn(0.045) / 10.0 != 0.5); } Actual result: -------------- Instead of using the fuzzy round, PHP just takes 0.5 and adds/substracts it from the given float (math.c) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=42294&edit=1
