There are many ways to round floating-point numbers. And many valid (!) algorithms. This is because the algorithm depends on the domain of value and sometimes on... country. For example as far as I know in my country money is rounded in the same way as in math calculations: 1.4 => 1 1.5 => 2 1.6 => 2 and 2.5 => 3 A lot of rounding algorithms (and very easy to implement in every language) can be found here: http://www.merlyn.demon.co.uk/pas-chop.htm ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.round.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+37383 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+37383&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+37383&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
