Description:
------------
When using this function to deal with an array containing decimal, there will be precision problems.

Test script:
---------------
<?php
$array['a'] = "as";
$array['b'] = 1;
$array['c'] = 1.13;
$array['d'] = 10.08;
echo json_encode($array);

Expected result:
----------------
{"a":"as","b":1,"c":1.13,"d":10.08}

Actual result:
--------------
{"a":"as","b":1,"c":1.1299999999999999,"d":10.08}

this issue cannot be reproduced with your test script, see <https://3v4l.org/42HIs>

jhdxr@php.net, I confirm that this problem exists and reproduced both in 7.1.0 and 7.1.1.
About your example I think it can be specific behaviour on 3v4l.org.

To reproduce issue you can try it from CLI for example:

# cat test.php
<?php
$array['a'] = "as";
$array['b'] = 1;
$array['c'] = 1.13;
$array['d'] = 10.08;
echo json_encode($array);
