Anyhow,
the way PHP treats floating points isn't properly. Why doesn't var_dump() or print_r show
me the real value of a floating var?
No one expects this behaviour from a programming language. If I say some var should have the value
0.7, it should,not become 0.6999... and keep telling me that the value is 0.7.
