PHP Math

PHP provides many predefined math constants and functions that can be used to perform
mathematical operations.

PHP Math: abs() function


The abs() function returns absolute value of given number. It returns an integer value but if you pass
floating point value, it returns a float value.

Syntax
number abs ( mixed $number )

Example

<?php
echo (abs(-7)."<br/>"); // 7 (integer)
echo (abs(7)."<br/>"); //7 (integer)
echo (abs(-7.2)."<br/>"); //7.2 (float/double)
?>
Output:

7
7
7.2

PHP Math: ceil() function

The ceil() function rounds fractions up.

Syntax
float ceil ( float $value )

Example

<?php

echo (ceil(3.3)."<br/>");// 4
echo (ceil(7.333)."<br/>");// 8
echo (ceil(-4.8)."<br/>");// -4
?>
Output:

4
8
-4
PHP Math: floor() function

The floor() function rounds fractions down.

Syntax
float floor ( float $value )
Example
<?php
echo (floor(3.3)."<br/>");// 3
echo (floor(7.333)."<br/>");// 7
echo (floor(-4.8)."<br/>");// -5
?>
Output:

3
7
-5
PHP Math: sqrt() function

The sqrt() function returns square root of given argument.

Syntax

float sqrt ( float $arg )

Example
<?php
echo (sqrt(16)."<br/>");// 4
echo (sqrt(25)."<br/>");// 5
echo (sqrt(7)."<br/>");// 2.6457513110646
?>
Output:

4
5
2.6457513110646

PHP Math: decbin() function

The decbin() function converts decimal number into binary. It returns binary number as a string.
Advertisement

Syntax
string decbin ( int $number )

Example
<?php
echo (decbin(2)."<br/>");// 10
echo (decbin(10)."<br/>");// 1010
echo (decbin(22)."<br/>");// 10110
?>
Output:

10
1010
10110
PHP Math: dechex() function

The dechex() function converts decimal number into hexadecimal. It returns hexadecimal
representation of given number as a string.

Syntax
string dechex ( int $number )

Example
<?php
echo (dechex(2)."<br/>");// 2
echo (dechex(10)."<br/>");// a
echo (dechex(22)."<br/>");// 16
?>
Output:

2
a
16

PHP Math: decoct() function

The decoct() function converts decimal number into octal. It returns octal representation of given
number as a string.

Syntax
string decoct ( int $number )

Example

<?php
echo (decoct(2)."<br/>");// 2
echo (decoct(10)."<br/>");// 12
echo (decoct(22)."<br/>");// 26
?>
Output:

2
12
26

PHP Math: base_convert() function

The base_convert() function allows you to convert any base number to any base number. For
example, you can convert hexadecimal number to binary, hexadecimal to octal, binary to octal, octal
to hexadecimal, binary to decimal etc.

Syntax
string base_convert ( string $number , int $frombase , int $tobase )
Example
<?php
$n1=10;
echo (base_convert($n1,10,2)."<br/>");// 1010
?>
Output:

1010

PHP Math: bindec() function

The bindec() function converts binary number into decimal.

Syntax
number bindec ( string $binary_string )

Example
<?php
echo (bindec(10)."<br/>");// 2
echo (bindec(1010)."<br/>");// 10
echo (bindec(1011)."<br/>");// 11
?>
Output:

2
10
11
