bcmul — Multiplikation zweier Zahlen beliebiger Genauigkeit

Beschreibung

bcmul(string $num1, string $num2, ?int $scale = null): string

Multipliziert num1 mit num2.

Parameter-Liste

num1: Der linke Operand in Stringform.
num2: Der rechte Operand in Stringform.
scale: Dieser optionale Parameter kann benutzt werden, um die Anzahl der Nachkommastellen im Ergebnis festzulegen. Sie können mit Hilfe der bcscale()-Funktion auch einen globalen Vorgabewert für alle Funktionen festlegen.

Rückgabewerte

Gibt das Ergebnis als String zurück.

Changelog

Version	Beschreibung
8.0.0	`scale` ist jetzt nullbar.
7.3.0	bcmul() liefert nun Zahlen mit den angeforderten Nachkommastellen zurück. Zuvor haben die zurückgelieferten Zahlen möglicherweise abschließende Dezimalnullen ausgelassen.

Beispiele

Beispiel #1 bcmul()-Beispiel

<?php
echo bcmul('1.34747474747', '35', 3); // 47.161
echo bcmul('2', '4'); // 8
?>

Anmerkungen

Hinweis:
Vor PHP 7.3.0 kann bcmul() ein Ergebnis mit weniger Nachkommastellen, als der scale Parameter angibt, zurückliefern. Dies geschieht nur, wenn das Ergebnis nicht die gesamte Präzision, die durch scale erlaubt ist, benötigt. Zum Beispiel:

Beispiel #2 bcmul()-Nachkommastellen-Beispiel

<?php echo bcmul('5', '2', 2); // gibt "10" aus, nicht "10.00" ?>

I made this to multiply an unlimited size of integers together (meaning no decimals)..
This could be useful for those without the BCMath extension.

<?php

function Mul($Num1='0',$Num2='0') {
  // check if they're both plain numbers
  if(!preg_match("/^\d+$/",$Num1)||!preg_match("/^\d+$/",$Num2)) return(0);

  // remove zeroes from beginning of numbers
  for($i=0;$i<strlen($Num1);$i++) if(@$Num1{$i}!='0') {$Num1=substr($Num1,$i);break;}
  for($i=0;$i<strlen($Num2);$i++) if(@$Num2{$i}!='0') {$Num2=substr($Num2,$i);break;}

  // get both number lengths
  $Len1=strlen($Num1);
  $Len2=strlen($Num2);

  // $Rema is for storing the calculated numbers and $Rema2 is for carrying the remainders
  $Rema=$Rema2=array();

  // we start by making a $Len1 by $Len2 table (array)
  for($y=$i=0;$y<$Len1;$y++)
    for($x=0;$x<$Len2;$x++)
      // we use the classic lattice method for calculating the multiplication..
      // this will multiply each number in $Num1 with each number in $Num2 and store it accordingly
      @$Rema[$i++%$Len2].=sprintf('%02d',(int)$Num1{$y}*(int)$Num2{$x});

  // cycle through each stored number
  for($y=0;$y<$Len2;$y++)
    for($x=0;$x<$Len1*2;$x++)
      // add up the numbers in the diagonal fashion the lattice method uses
      @$Rema2[Floor(($x-1)/2)+1+$y]+=(int)$Rema[$y]{$x};

  // reverse the results around
  $Rema2=array_reverse($Rema2);

  // cycle through all the results again
  for($i=0;$i<count($Rema2);$i++) {
    // reverse this item, split, keep the first digit, spread the other digits down the array
    $Rema3=str_split(strrev($Rema2[$i]));
    for($o=0;$o<count($Rema3);$o++)
      if($o==0) @$Rema2[$i+$o]=$Rema3[$o];
      else @$Rema2[$i+$o]+=$Rema3[$o];
  }
  // implode $Rema2 so it's a string and reverse it, this is the result!
  $Rema2=strrev(implode($Rema2));

  // just to make sure, we delete the zeros from the beginning of the result and return
  while(strlen($Rema2)>1&&$Rema2{0}=='0') $Rema2=substr($Rema2,1);

  return($Rema2);
}

$A='5650175242508133742';
$B='2361030539975818701734615584174625';

printf("  Mul(%s,%s); // %s\r\n",$A,$B,  Mul($A,$B));
printf("BCMul(%s,%s); // %s\r\n",$A,$B,BCMul($A,$B)); // build-in function

/*
  This will print something similar to this..
    Mul(5650175242508133742,2361030539975818701734615584174625);
  BCMul(5650175242508133742,2361030539975818701734615584174625);

  both of which should be followed by the answer:
  13340236303776981390475700774516825287352418182696750
*/

?>

It was a fun experience making.. even though this took me longer than the BCAdd alternative I did..
Memory allocation might be an issue for rediculously larger numbers though.. if someone wants to benchmark the performance of my function; feel free.
Enjoy,
Nitrogen.

Well, I have a little problem implementing Blake Hash in my server because it is not a x64 server machine. I made a little function that use the powerfull of BC library to do the bitwise operation Shift.

<?php
echo 'Left Shift test<br />';
bprint('1', decbin(1));
bprint('1 << 32 (Fail)', decbin(1 << 32)); //Fail, operation not succesfull in 32-bit machine
bprint('shiftleft(1, 32) (Success)', dec2bin(shiftleft('1', '32'))); //decbin fails, so we use personalized function, success

echo '<br />';
echo 'Right Shift test<br />';
bprint('9223372036854775808', dec2bin('9223372036854775808'));
bprint('9223372036854775808 >> 63 (Fail)', decbin(9223372036854775808 >> 63));
bprint('rightshift(9223372036854775808, 63) (Success)', decbin(rightshift('9223372036854775808', '63')));

function shiftleft($num, $bits) {
    return bcmul($num, bcpow('2', $bits));
}

function rightshift($num, $bits) {
    return bcdiv($num, bcpow('2', $bits));
}

function bprint($title, $content) {
    echo $title . '<br />' . str_pad($content, 64, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT) . '<br />' . PHP_EOL;
}

//http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.decbin.php#99533
function dec2bin($dec) {
    // Better function for dec to bin. Support much bigger values, but doesn’t support signs
    for ($b = '', $r = $dec; $r >1;) {
        $n = floor($r / 2);
        $b = ($r - $n * 2) . $b;
        $r = $n; // $r%2 is inaccurate when using bigger values (like 11.435.168.214)!
    }
    return ($r % 2) . $b;
}
?>

When using printf to print the results of bcmath operations, use string format, i.e. '%s', not numeric formats such as '%d' or '%f'.  For example, the output of factorial (23) will be incorrect if using %d or %f:

Result using %f:
factorial (22) = 1124000727777607680000 (correct)
factorial (23) = 25852016738884978212864 (incorrect)

Result using %s:
factorial (22) = 1124000727777607680000
factorial (23) = 25852016738884976640000

Using echo, this is not a problem - PHP will output the bcmath string type correctly.
