#29738 [NEW]: percentages error

From: support at pulse-hosting dot com Operating system: Linux RedHat PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Unknown/Other Function Bug description: percentages error Description: ------------ I can't seem to work out why, but the %() function doesn't always return the right out. For example 25% (40); returns 25 yet 25% of 40 is 15. I've checked and checked again and the error is on php's side and not mine. Other percentages work yet some don't. Reproduce code: --------------- $sum = 25% (40); echo "25% of 40 is ".$sum; Expected result: ---------------- 25% of 40 is 15 Actual result: -------------- 25% of 40 is 25 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=29738&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29738&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29738&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29738&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29738&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29738&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29738&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29738&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29738&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29738&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29738&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29738&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29738&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29738&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29738&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29738&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29738&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=29738&r=float
