Operating System: Gentoo Linux /w apache2
PHP Version: 4.3.1
New Comment:
I believe the problem is related.. For example, we are
both using Pentium$ CPU's..
sprintf works fine on my Athlon, but not my pentium4...
In addition, his example produced the same output on my
machine. and I've tried putting the float in a variable,
float as a string it alwasy returns the same so I am
pretty sure that the problem is within sprintf..
Could anyone tell me where the sprintf code is in php? I
don't mind messing with it and trying to figure out what
is wrong...
Josh.

Works fine here (Gentoo with glibc 2.3.2), using php5 cvs from two days
ago (cli).

Just tried PHP4.3.2/5 with CLI/Apache1 on mdk/winxp. All
work fine and the code that might cause the problems is not sapi
dependant.
The external message you pointed to is different because he used a
string to be printed with %f. That means it must first be converted to
a number and then printed.

I am not the only one experiencing this problem.. plus it
seems to round the number randomly for example
echo sprintf('%.2f', '8.7586206896551724');
returns 10.00

It cannot be a general php problem as nobody here can reproduce it. It
has to something related to either Apache2 or some other factor unique
to your machine.

I built it with the lastest snapshot (phpinfo said it was
4.3.2-RC) and the exact same problem is occuring.
I have also made a sample C program to test the output of
printf and it works in the C program. So it's definately
something to do with php.
Anything else I can do to help you guys figure this out?
Josh.
