 Everywhere
 Time, Date, Cost, Contants
 In PHP: Integers and floating-point numbers
 Automatically converts from strings to numbers and back
Introduction  1+"1" is 2.
 2.2e–308 - 1.8e308
 BCMath and GMP Liberaries
Checking
Whether a
Variable
Contains a
Valid Number
 5,100?
 Use str_replace()

Checking
Whether a
Variable
Contains a
Valid Number  is_float() ; is_double() ; is_int()
Comparing
Floating-Point
Numbers
 $number = round(2.4)
 $number = ceil(2.4);

Rounding  $number = floor(2.4);


 $final = round($total, 2);
Floating-Point
Numbers  If a number falls exactly between two integers, PHP rounds
away from 0
Operating on a
Series of
Integers
Generating
Random
Numbers
 $log = log(10);
Taking  $log10 = log10(10);
Logarithms  $log2 = log(10, 2);
 To raise e to a power, use exp()
 // $exp (e squared) is about 7.389
 $exp = exp(2);
