i noticed all (well, unless i missed something) the functions working with decimals destroy trailing
decimal places. this function restores them in case you want to be able to display a consistent
precision for users.
function decimal($val, $precision = 0) {
if ((float) $val) :
$val = round((float) $val, (int) $precision);
list($a, $b) = explode('.', $val);
if (strlen($b) < $precision) $b = str_pad($b, $precision, '0', STR_PAD_RIGHT);
return $precision ? "$a.$b" : $a;
else : // do whatever you want with values that do not have a float
return $val;
endif;
}
