why would one want fmod() !?!? if there isnt even a normal mod() function!? damm!<p> Maybe one should keep better focus on normal useful function than on inventing more !??!<p> The main reason is to have universal function .. at leats more or less better than having cryptic names .. i dont have the time to lookup all those functions just because someone thought it would be funny to call the function fmod() .. maybe with at least a bit of thinking one would have implemented an alias to mod() .. at least for the sake of having a function with the same name as the function would be called in all other programming languages ... just dont be too creative than looking for a name for a function ... <p> and yeah im not going to update my php to 4.2.x just of that!? -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fmod.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+30713 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+30713 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+30713
