Rounding in php

[alexphd]

I read the Manuel on php.net for rounding but none of it really applied to me.

What I am trying to do is round the number 4.23 to 4.25 or 65.76 to 65.80 or 9.98 to 10.00

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Alex

You didn't look hard enough, my friend!

[php]
echo round(1.34, 2);
/* the second parameter is to what decimal place the number shall be rounded.
*/
[/php]

[hsriat]

[php]$rounded_number = (ceil($number*2 0))/20;[/php]
Mathematical trick, more than PHP.

Nice! I enjoy seeing maths put in place as work arounds! But yeah, markus's one is probably what you're looking for!

I don't think this works completly well as he needs it to round to a different position based on the number.

hsriat's little exp works perfectly though if he always wants to round up.

I've seen it before.

Yea, I saw that in the maually and I tried using it and it didnt work, hsriat's solution does work great though. Thank you very much.
