A few things to note about printf: 1. The definition of specifier g (or G) is often wrongly stated as being "use e or f (or E or f), whichever results in the shorter string". The correct rule is given in the documentation and it does not always give this result. 2. For g/G/h/H, trailing zeros after the decimal point are removed (but not a zero just after the decimal point, in the e/E style). 3. g/G are locale-aware whether the e/E or f style is produced. 4. For b/o/x/X/u (that is, all integer styles except d) the result shown for negative values is the twos complement form of the number, 2**32 + v, where v is the (negative) value. ---- Server IP: 45.112.84.4 Probable Submitter: 80.90.5.137 (proxied: 85.255.234.41) ---- Manual Page -- https://php.net/manual/en/function.printf.php Edit -- https://main.php.net/note/edit/129719 Del: integrated -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129719/integrated Del: useless -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129719/useless Del: bad code -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129719/bad+code Del: spam -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129719/spam Del: non-english -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129719/non-english Del: in docs -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129719/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129719 Reject -- https://main.php.net/note/reject/129719 Search -- https://main.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
