Versiune Descriere

Exemple

Example #1 bcscale() example

<?php

// default scale : 3
bcscale(3);
echo 
bcdiv('105''6.55957'); // 16.007

These functions DO NOT round off your values. No arbitrary precision libraries do it this way. It stops calculating after reaching scale of decimal places, which mean that your value is cut off after scale number of digits, not rounded. To do the rounding use something like this:
<?php
       
function bcround($number, $scale=0) {
               
$fix = "5";
                for (
$i=0;$i<$scale;$i++) $fix="0$fix";
               
$number = bcadd($number, "0.$fix", $scale+1);
                return   
bcdiv($number, "1.0",    $scale);
        }
?>

Executing bcsacle() will change the scale value of fpm.conf, not only the current process.

Simple, easy way to remove excess trailing zeros using rtrim:
<php>
  // $total is the result of a bcmath calculation
  if ( strpos($total, '.') !== false ):
    $total = rtrim($total, '0');
    $total = rtrim($total, '.');
  endif;
</php>

edited bcround function with negative number support:
<?php
function bcround($number, $scale=0) {
    if(
$scale < 0) $scale = 0;
   
$sign = '';
    if(
bccomp('0', $number, 64) == 1) $sign = '-';
   
$increment = $sign . '0.' . str_repeat('0', $scale) . '5';
   
$number = bcadd($number, $increment, $scale+1);
    return
bcadd($number, '0', $scale);
}
?>
