Note Submitter: bdiaz@aullox.com ---- Yet another IWBNI posting... I used the caret ( ^ ) "operator" in a truncate() function of mine with a result similar to a substraction. So, I had to implement an even weirder function which would work better. Should anyone know of a better way to do this, I thank in advance. //The function expects a double $num and an int $pos indicating the decimal //positions to allow function truncate($num,$pos){ $pos=(int)$pos; $m="1e$pos"; //this is our divider, ten at $pos power $t=(double)$num*(double)$m; //just to be sure $t=(int)$t; //yes, we need to cut superfluous decimals $t=(double)$t/(double)$m; return $t; }
