note 73925 added to function.round

With regard to chafy at alo dot bg's not just previous; if the number 5.555 is displayed with sufficient precision (more than about 16 digits) it will probably turn out to have been stored as something like 5.554999999....9997, which would round down to 5.55. Floating-point numbers should ALWAYS be regarded as being a little bit fuzzy. It's a consequence of the fact that they're stored in binary but humans want them displayed in decimal: you can't write one-tenth exactly as a binary expansion any more than you can write one-seventh exactly as a decimal one. See the warning note on the floating-point type page. ---- Server IP: 203.89.181.184 Probable Submitter: 60.234.168.92 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.round.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/73925 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73925/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73925/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73925/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73925/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73925/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73925/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73925 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/73925 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
