Re: how to keep decimals from rounding

Curt, thanks for the reply and the suggestion. Truncating is exactly what I will do. Thanks! ~Rob Curt Zirzow wrote:

Is there a way to surpress round() or number_format() from rounding decimal places? I have a value of ".253338" being returned via a calc function. I take that value and multiply by 100 because I want "25.333" to be displayed. I've used round(), sprintf(), and number_format() and each of them rounds the value up.

One would expect sprintf not too round, but, behold, it does. According to bugs.php.net, it is not a bug.

I had a problem with precision earlier which I solved...my 'precision' setting in php.ini was set too low. Is there something in php.ini that controls rounding? Any heads up are appreciated!

Perhaps by truncating the string to your precision that you desire. Curt
