PHP Bug Type: Math related
Bug description: weird subtraction result
I don't know, if this is a Math related problem,
it is a simple subtraction problem.
If I type this
$one = "555.6";
$two = "555.5";
$result = $one - $two;
echo $result;
the result in my browser is
0.10000000000002
This occurs with more numbers than above.
So, what is my problem?
