Some of these "special" values are 1200000, 1400000, 2300000, 2400000. It seems to be just certain multiples of 100,000. Generate your own list with the code below. I suggest you start with input of: Start = 1000000 Increment = 100000 Iterations = 100 to 200 Reproduce code: --------------- <html><head><title></title></head><body> <form method="post" action="<?=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>"> <!-- some recommended values for next fields: 1000000, 100000, 200 --> Start value:<input type="text" name="start"> Increment: <input type="text" name="increment"> Iterations: <input type="text" name="iterations"> <input type="submit"> </form> <? if(count($_POST)) { echo "<p>Start: ", $_POST['start'], "; Increment: ", $_POST['increment'], "</p>"; $tmp = $_POST['start']; echo round($tmp),"<br>"; for($i = 0; $i < $_POST['iterations']; $i++ ) { $tmp += $_POST['increment']; echo round($tmp),"<br>"; } } ?> </body></html> Expected result: ---------------- All values to be returned in standard decimal format, e.g., "1200000". Actual result: -------------- Certain values are returned in exponential format, e.g., "1.2E+6". ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=44223&edit=1
