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 Nothing stupid here except your knowledge of operator preference. 23+23*0.5 == 23 + (23 * 0.5) = 34.5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-11-23 14:32:53] JaiKMw at aol dot com Description: ------------ /* I would like to know if this is a bug, cuz i konw of some issues of defective processors like my pentium II processor I don't think that, cuz in the calculator of WinME the Answer is Right (23+23/2=23) This also happens with JavaScript... :-| :D Reproduce code: --------------- <?php function Mm($a,$b){ $R=$a+$b*0.5;// Is The Same If I Put " /2 " Instead. return $R; } echo Mm(23,23)."<BR>";//The Correct Would Be 23 Instead of 34.5 echo Mm(243,456)."<BR>";//'''''''''''''''''' 349.5 Instead of 471. ?> Expected result: ---------------- To write the Correct Answers.. Actual result: -------------- Doesn't givethe right Answer, and, it seems so stupid :D.. with all the respect :P, cuz 23+23=46, but, javascript do the same too, is an error on my processor or not?, the calc.exe shows the right answer.. :D... That bugs are from year 2000 xD.. :D ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=26366&edit=1
