Use lower serialize_presision if you do not want this kind of outputs.

i.e. IEEE float value is not "precise" float value.
 [2016-12-08 05:30 UTC] yohgaki@php.net 
The reason behind this change.

JSON is cross platform serialization and most systems uses IEEE 754 for float. Older PHP JSON truncated float value by "precision" ini setting which is less precise with regard to IEEE 754. i.e. Older PHP was losing precision by default.

PHP 7.1 uses "serialize_precision" which is the same precision for most systems. Therefore, PHP 7.1 or later JSON can handle float value more precisely than before.

If users want to use the value displayed by "echo $float_val;", set the same "prevision" ini value to "serialize_precision". Please note that this affects serialize() also.
