The above printed "is_true_float" function is not correct. It gives wrong answers on the following tests: is_true_float("-4,123"); # returns false is_true_float("0,123"); # returns false So I changed the function to correctly handle qouted negative floats and quoted floats near zero: <?php function is_true_float($mVal) { return ( is_float($mVal) || ( (float) $mVal != round($mVal) || strlen($mVal) != strlen( (int) $mVal) ) && $mVal != 0 ); } ?> ---- Server IP: 213.249.64.162 Probable Submitter: 80.126.184.94 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.is-float.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/80326 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80326/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80326/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80326/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80326/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80326/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80326/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80326 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/80326 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
