Floating point values have a limited precision. Hence a value might 
not have the same string representation after any processing. That also
includes writing a floating point value in your script and directly 
printing it without any mathematical operations.

If you would like to know more about "floats" and what IEEE
754 is, read this:
http://www.floating-point-gui.de/

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

The return value of round() is still a floating point number. If the precision is 
high enough, printing that float may result in seeing additional significant 
digits because of the imprecision inherent to floating point arithmetic.
