Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-29 19:57:10] koen at genericmedia dot nl Description: ------------ When rounding a small negative number, the function returns a negative zero. I suspect this has something to do with computing precision, so I suppose that the reason is not really a bug. I've seen the bug report at #31870 and I understand the answer. Strange thing is however that prior to 5.2.3 the result actually was float(0). Reproduce code: --------------- <?php var_dump( round(-0.26) ); ?> Expected result: ---------------- float(0) Actual result: -------------- PHP 4.3.10: float(0) PHP 4.4.6: float(0) PHP 5.1.6: float(0) PHP 5.2.3: float(-0) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=42477&edit=1
