i've got a script:

<?
echo number_format("4.705",2,'.','');
echo "<br>";
echo number_format("1.785",2,'.','');
?>

the result should be:

4.71
1.79 (because last digit is 5)

but is

4.71
1.78 <-- why?

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

This has to do with float rounding guidelines, not a bug in PHP.
