I read the manual page on sprintf, but I still don't understand exactly how the format string works. $money1 = 68.75; $money2 = 54.35; $money = $money1 + $money2; // echo $money will output "123.1"; $formatted = sprintf("%01.2f", $money); // echo $formatted will output "123.10" How does that work? What part of the string corresponds to what? Thanks for any and all help!
