Beware of FLOAT weirdness!Floats have a mind of their own, and what may look like an integer stored in a float isn't.Here's a baffling example of how floor can be tripped up by this:<?php$price=79.99;print$price."\r\n";// correct result, 79.99 shown$price=$price*100;print$price."\r\n";// correct result, 7999 shownprintfloor($price);// 7998 shown! what's going on??>The thing to remember here is that the way a float stores a value makes it very easy for these kinds of things to happen. When the 79.99 was multiplied by 100, the actual value stored in the float was probably something like 7998.9999999999999999999999999999999999, PHP would print out 7999 when the value is displayed, but floor would therefore round this down to 7998.The moral of this story - never use float for anything that needs to be accurate! If you're doing prices for products or a shopping cart, then always use an integer and store prices as a number of pence, you'll thank me for this later :)

Note:<?php$int=0.99999999999999999;echofloor($int);// returns 1?>and<?php$int=0.9999999999999999;echofloor($int);// returns 0?>
