Note that the documentation is unclear about the details of the sign specifier. First of all, the
character for this is "+".
Also note that the following does NOT print "+00.00" as you might expect:
<?php
printf('%+02.2f', 0);
?>
The sign is included in the width. This can't be solved by increasing the width:
<?php
printf('%+03.2f', 0);
?>
This will put the padding 0 before the sign.
Here is a possible solution:
<?php
$value = 0;
printf('%s%02.2f', ($value < 0) ? '-' : '+', abs($value));
?>
