Note Submitter: php %at_ cybercow dot se ---- Do you think this is strange? Me too! Any explanation, anybody? $basePrice = 600*0.82; // will be 492 echo $basePrice; // will be 491 echo (int)$basePrice; This will fix the problem. $basePrice = round(600*0.82); // will be 492 echo $basePrice; // will be 492 echo (int)$basePrice; Strange doubles, we get the same error in c double basePrice = 600; // basePrice = 492.00000000000 basePrice = basePrice*0.82; // nBasePrice = 491 int nBasePrice = (int)basePrice;
