Just a note about using the submitted codes below.. Their functions have an optional $precision parameter; however, it's not being used properly.. BCMath functions by default do not use decimal precision unless specified by BCScale($precision); or using the extra parameter in the used BC functions. For example, a blank PHP file with their code.. executing BCExp('5.7'); returns "47" instead of the correct answer of "298.86740096706..." So for optimum accuracy, I'd suggest setting BCScale to a healthy length before running their codes. ---- Server IP: 87.124.86.46 Probable Submitter: 81.157.231.27 (proxied: 81.157.231.27) ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.exp.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/93713 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93713/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93713/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93713/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93713/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93713/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93713/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93713 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/93713 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
