FW: [PHP-WIN] basic variable question

2003-02-14 Thread Svensson, B.A.T. (HKG) 

Obviously you are on to *somthing* with your first
comment, because one way to evaluate to 1.1 each
time is if for instance:

 $taxrate = 0.10; // local sales tax is %10
 $totalamount = $totalamount * (1 + $taxrate);

Is evaluated like:

  $totalamount * (1 + $taxrate)
  == 1 * (1 + 0.1)
  == 1 * 1.1 == 1.1

[PHP-WIN] basic variable question

2003-02-13 Thread paradiddles 

  Hi everyone. Why does my code work when I enter just 1 for the quantity, but only 
returns $1.10 when I enter a quantity of 2 or more? 

 

   $totalqty = 0.00;
   $totalamount = 0.00;

   define(HALLTABLE, 800);

   $totalqty =  $_POST[hallqty]; //quantity

   $totalamount =  $_POST[hallqty] * HALLTABLE; //total cost

$totalamount = number_format($totalamount, 2);
 echo $totalamount;
 echo br\n;
 echo Items ordered:  .$totalqty.br\n;
 echo Subtotal:   $.$totalamount.br\n;

 $taxrate = 0.10; // local sales tax is %10
 $totalamount = $totalamount * (1 + $taxrate);

 $totalamount = number_format($totalamount, 2);


 echo br\n;
 echo Total including tax: $.$totalamount.br\n;

You're not using the $totalqty variable in any of the statements that
modify the $totalamount.

If you remove the first call to number_format(), it works.
