And on the why, because the type is 'float', and not 'double'.

PHP has no distinct floating point types, so 'float' is the one and only
right name for it. I discussed this with Zeev, and he agreed on that point.
And also: Double really gives the feeling there also needs to be some
'single' type...

Same goes for integer. We also don't call that long, because we happen to
use the C-type 'long' for it?
