bcscale — Imposta il valore di precisione di default per tutte le funzioni matematich BCMath
$precisione
): bool
Questa funzione imposta il valore di default del parametro precisione
per tutte le funzioni
BCMath susseguenti, che non specifichino esplicitamente un parametro
di precisione numerica. Restituisce true
in caso di successo, false
in caso di fallimento.
Example #1 esempio di bcscale()
<?php
// precisione di default : 3
bcscale(3);
echo bcdiv(105, 6.55957); // 16.007
// la stessa cosa, senza utilizzare bcscale()
echo bcdiv(105, 6.55957, 3); // 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);
}
?>
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);
}
?>
Does not work with big scale values, but accept INT as type, but can not process the max INT value, by example for calculate the cube root:
<?php
echo pow(1331, 1/3); // 11 (11^3=1331)
echo bcpow(1331, bcdiv(1, 3, PHP_INT_MAX)); // 1 ??
echo bcdiv(1, 3, PHP_INT_MAX); // 0 ??
To remove trailing zeros when using large bcscale number can be done by casting to float when ready to display the number.
<?php
bcscale(15);
$a=123.456;
$b=0.123;
$_ab=bcadd($a,$b);
echo $_ab;
// 123.579000000000000
$ab = (float)$_ab;
echo $ab;
// 123.579
?>
If you don't set the default scale, be careful when you're chaining together several BC math functions - since by default, these functions will round off your values, losing accuracy very quickly:
<?php
$a = 1.234
$b = 2.345
$c = 7.890
$ab = bcmul($a,$b); // 2
$abc = bcmul($ab,$c);
echo $abc; // 15
?>
... compare with the answer you get when you use more decimal places:
<?php
$a = 1.234
$b = 2.345
$c = 7.890
bcscale(15);
$ab = bcmul($a,$b); // 2.893730
$abc = bcmul($ab,$c);
echo $abc; // 22.83152970
?>
Previously stated one liner trailing 0 removing using rtrim() works fine except following class of subcases:
<?php
echo rtrim('100.0000', '0.'); // 1 instead 100
echo rtrim('1230.00000000', '0.'); // 123 instead 1230
?>
What seems to be working to me is using regular expression replacement. Althought it`s probably not that fast as rtrim(), I hope it should be more reliable:
<?php
function removeFloatNumStringZeroTrailer($input) {
$patterns = array('/[\.][0]+$/','/([\.][0-9]*[1-9])([0]*)$/');
$replaces = array('','$1');
return preg_replace($patterns,$replaces,$input);
}
echo removeFloatNumStringZeroTrailer('100.0000'); // says 100
echo removeFloatNumStringZeroTrailer('1230.00000000'); // says 1230
?>
