floats are not supposed to be exact (per definition). do not use them on currencies. calculate cents ant use (agein) number_format() to display them prooperly. No bug in PHP, bogus. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-22 09:17:32] [EMAIL PROTECTED] my previous bug report was 15162. i wrote about (int) cast there. another bug may be a reason of that. i do: (267.57 - 267) * 100 and i get: 57.999999999999 (i expected 57) [may be i work too much...] consider this: <? $price = 267.57; $price_dolars = floor($price); echo "number of cents is: " . ($price - $price_dolars)*100 . "<BR>"; ?> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=15164&edit=1 -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
