Are printf and number_format supposed to round?

echo ($hcount-$lcount)/$hilow." ";
echo number_format(($hcount-$lcount)/$hilow,2,'.','');


0.20833333333333 0.21
0.14583333333333 0.15
0.16666666666667 0.17
0.083333333333333 0.08
Printf ("%.2f",($hcount-$lcount)/$hilow);
Does the same.

It would appear to be. If there is a function to print just to the digit
could you point me in the direction? So I would want 0.20  0.14   0.16
0.08 respectively.

You could have the number_format return an extra digit, and then strip that 
extra digit off.

$str = number_format(($hcount-$lcount)/$hilow,3,'.','');
$str = substr($str, 0, 4);  // (something like this)
