This is a slighty shorter and faster version of ranzoategui's round function: <? function stdround($num, $d=0) { $d = pow(10, $d); return round(floor($num * $d * 10) / 10) / $d; } ?> This function behaves exactly like round(), except for the fact that it doesn't apply a so called bankers' rounding algorithm, but a more classic approach (where a 5 is always rounded up).
