New Comment:
Floating point values have a limited precision. Hence a value might
not have the same string representation after any processing. That also
includes writing a floating point value in your script and directly
printing it without any mathematical operations.
If you would like to know more about "floats" and what IEEE
754 is, read this:

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

Description:
------------
I have found a small bug while using floor function.
The function isn't showing as I wanted (and the function were made for).
Cheers, Potar
Test script:
---------------
echo floor(2.9999999999999999); // 3
echo floor(2.999999999999999); // 2
