Re: Converting floats to ints with intval

It's part of the rounding problem you get with most languages out there. Why can't you compare the floating point values though? Currency should only have one decimal place anyway.

You can't compare floating point values because if you have, for example, a user-entered value of '37.12' and add that to '0.18' it won't necessarily be equal to '37.30'. Currency must have two decimal places, otherwise how would you represent five pounds and sixteen pence (£5.16) for example? -- Paul Waring http://www.pwaring.com
