I have values with 2 decimals that I multiple by 100 to make them integers, but to be sure I do a cast using (int). The thing is that (int) is changing the value of the integer. Here is a var_dump of the original value, the value * 100, and the value after casting to int. string(5) "34.80" float(3480) int(3479) Using floor() those the exact same thing. Why is this?echo serialize("34.80" * 100); 3479.99999999999954525264911353588104248046875 int simply chops it, hence 3479 :)
