Please take time to check my testcase correctly before replying that's all is OK ! Thanks, - JP 2011 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-06-03 13:47:06] robert at idacmedia dot com > I already fixed this one (because of a user note). With the test case given by jeanphilg I still get 47.161. PHP 5.3.5 with Win7 x64 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-09-06 10:34:13] nlopess@php.net I already fixed this one (because of a user note). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-08-23 20:12:27] jeanphilg at hotmail dot com Description: ------------ This example is totally false : echo bcmul('1.34747474747', '35', 3); //47.162 If you use this line of code in your app, PHP will not round the last decimal. The value will be truncated at the third position and... here's the result : -------> 47.161 <------- Please at least change the doc. - JP Reproduce code: --------------- //Give 47.161, not 47.162 echo bcmul('1.34747474747', '35', 3); Expected result: ---------------- 47.162 Actual result: -------------- 47.161 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=38573&edit=1
