Default Number of Decimal Places to Output in PHP
basically a bit of a maths problem,
$average_ppm = $total_points_given / $totalvalue;
$average_ppm now equals 2.432608695652174, I don't want to display these numbers, I just need $average_ppm to be 2.43, so to a fixed 2 decimal points. How can I do this??
Thanks for anyones time.
Use sprintf if you want a string output, or round/floor/ceil for a numeric value:
$average_ppm = 2.432608695652174;
echo sprintf("%.2f", $average_ppm); // 2.43
$approx_average_ppm = round($average_ppm, 2);
echo $approx_average_ppm; // 2.43
echo floor($average_ppm, 2); // 2.43 , even if $average_ppm = 2.439
echo ceil($average_ppm, 2); // 2.44
You could either use sprintf, round or floor/ceil depending on how you want the numbers rounded.
Most suited for your need would be round:
$average_ppm = round($total_points_given / $totalvalue,2);
If you want to have ALWAYS 2 numbers after... you can do it with number_format:
number_format(2.43260869565217, 2); // 2.43
When you got a number like: 2.400054846 and you use round you will get 2.4
and if you want it with 2 number behind you can use number_format this will output 2.40
I would use Round:
round($average_ppm, 2);
You could use the bcmath functions if they are available where the third argument is the precision
$average_ppm = bcdiv($total_points_given, $totalvalue, 2);

I have a variable
$amount = 621.00;
I need the 30% of the variable with output 186.30
When I calculate:
$amount2 = round($amount*30/100 , 2);
echo $amount2
gives the output of 186.3
how can I have output 186.30
number_format() should do the trick.
// english notation without thousands separator
$amount2 = number_format($amount2, 2, '.', '');
// 1234.57
You could use number_format for that:
$amount2 = number_format($amount * 30 / 100, 2);
echo $amount2;
You can use number_format
For example number_format($amount2, 2)
More details: http://php.net/manual/en/function.number-format.php
use number_format($amount2,2) at the end.
See documentation here: http://php.net/manual/en/function.number-format.php

Delete digits after two decimal points, without rounding the value

I have a value 3.9609053497942. I need value 3.9 means only one value after decimal. I have used PHP number_format and round functions but it is giving me answer 4.
You could multiply the number by 10, floor() it, and then divide it back.
echo floor($value * 10) / 10;
Try with this,
echo intval((3.9609053497942*10))/10;
or
echo floor((3.9609053497942*10))/10;
There is so many possible solutions:
echo bcadd(3.9609053497942, 0, 1);
preg_match('/\d*\.\d/', 3.9609053497942, $matches);
echo $matches[0];
why not treat it as a string, like
$x = (string)3.96;
$y = explode(".",$x);
$result = $y[0] . "." . $y[1];
Did you tried like:
number_format(3.9609053497942, 1);

Print numeric values to two decimal places

hello i'm trying to find %. first i found the seconds
$tm=sum_the_time($d_duration);
$d_seconds='0';
list($hour,$minute,$second) = explode(':', $tm);
$d_seconds += $hour*3600;
$d_seconds += $minute*60;
$d_seconds += $second;
$total_second=$c_seconds+$p_seconds+$t_seconds+$b_seconds+$d_seconds;
$c_seconds=$c_seconds*100/$total_second;
$p_seconds=$p_seconds*100/$total_second;
$t_seconds=$t_seconds*100/$total_second;
$b_seconds=$b_seconds*100/$total_second;
$d_seconds=$d_seconds*100/$total_second;
echo $c_seconds;
the result is 10.754504504505, how would I print this code like 10.7
You can try using printf() function:
printf("%.1f", $c_seconds);
Or, number_format():
echo number_format( $c_seconds, 1 );
These two functions will round your number (will return 10.8 in your example), so, if you want to just truncate to the first decimal place (result to be equal to 10.7), you can use the following:
echo substr($c_seconds, 0, strpos($c_seconds, ".") + 2);
Actually, you can use the solutions from this question to better use number_format() and get your desired result.
echo sprintf('%0.1f', $c_seconds);
relevant docs here: http://php.net/sprintf
http://php.net/manual/en/function.number-format.php numberformat is propably what you are looking for.

PHP: show a number to 2 decimal places
How can I format an input number to be 0.00 if it has not any value? I tried (double) but it prints 0 only.
Here you go :)
echo number_format($var,2);
If you want it to print specific no. of decimal points, use number_format.
$float_var = number_format($var, 2);
$var = number_format($number, 2, '.', '');
This forces 2 points after the decimal, sets the decimal as a period. You can also forego the last two as it defaults to it;
Note: The third value is your decimal separator, the fourth value is the thousandths separator.
$var = number_format($number, 2);
For direct output:
printf('%0.2f',$var);
Output into variable:
$outVar = sprintf('%0.2f',$var);
This statemant casts $var type to float and prints with 2 decimal signs
maybe you should check it first if the value is not set
if(!isset($variableName))
{
// then set
$variableName = "0.00"; // => string
//or like this
$variableName = number_format(0,2); // => this result is also string
}
echo "value: ",$variableName;
result
0.00
if you are trying to format the value i sugest you to use meioMask pluging.
So you define your field as number and the pluging do the trick, even if you set "0" for the value

I need to convert numbers to have .00 after them, but only if the number is an integer, or it has just 1 number after the decimal point, like so:
1.4 = 1.40
45 = 45.00
34.77 = 34.77
What reg exp to use for this simple case?
You can also use printf or sprintf
printf("%01.2f", '34.77');
$formatted_num = sprintf("%01.2f", '34.77');
number_format($number, 2, '.', '');
Read more at PHP.net. You don't need to determine if a number is an integer or not -- as long as it's a number, it will be formatted to two decimal places.
If you'd like the thousands separator, change the last parameter to ','.
Check out PHP's built-in function number_format
You can pass it a variable and it'll format it to the correct decimal places
$number = 20;
if (is_int($number)) {
$number = number_format($number, 2, '.', '');
}
read number_format
number_format($number, 2, '.', '');
$num = 0.00638835;
$avg = sscanf($num,"%f")[0] /100;
echo sprintf("%.10f", $avg);
result 0.0000638835
