[SOLVED] problem in numer format

[ahmedm177]

i have an array value as following  $result['val1']

 

when i do echo for it

 

i have number like that 4,100,000

 

after that if i multiplied it by 2 ( as example )

 

the result will be 8

 

although the result must be 8,200,000

 

so what should i do ?

Post the relevant code.

 

 

so what should i do ?

It is most likely because of the commas.

 

so...

 

<?php
$number = 4,100,000

$num = str_replace(",",$number);

echo number_format($num * 2);
?>

[redarrow]

you sure you can use the * in number format looks strange sorry?

[The Little Guy]

yes, because it will multiply it, then it will be a number which the function will use, it won't use $num * 2 but it will use the product of $num * 2

<?php
$number = 4,100,000

$num = str_replace(",",$number);

echo number_format($num * 2);
?>

 

Thank you little guy

your code solve my problem, but there is a small addition

<?php
$number = 4,100,000

$num = str_replace(",","",$number);

echo number_format($num * 2);
?>
