$a = 4,34598434 > then I want thios of ot 4,3

In English it is often called "rounding", e.g.

1. Round the following to the nearest dollar:

a. $79.86
b. $0.97
c. $1322.02

Round the following to the nearest integer.

a. 5.12
b. 99.9
c. 19573.32[/i]

In PHP, you might want to look at [man]round/man, [man]number_format/man, [man]floor/man and [man]ceil/man (which is a play on the English word "ceiling") ...

HTH,

ah thanks I found the commands 🙂.

now I have this problem:

$siz = filesize('downloads/' . $out)

if ((round($siz / (1024 1024), 1) < .1) == FALSE){$siz = round($siz / (1024 1024), 1) . ' MB';}
if ((round($siz / (1024), 1) < .1) == FALSE){$siz = round($siz / (1024), 1) . ' kb';}
if ((round($siz /, 1) < .1) == FALSE){$siz = $siz . ' bytes';}

I try to find the size in the correct naming (MB, kb or bytes), but this doesnt seem to work. what am I doing wrong here? 😕

Well, it works for me, with a couple of small adjustments.

First, in the posted code, you have a spurious comma which causes a syntax error in your third "if" (after the division slash).

Secondly, I changed the second and third "if"s to "elseif"s...

After that, it seems to work, although I don't know exactly what results you want. But it looks pretty good. 🙂

ah now it works :S thanks! 😃

I must not be very smart to make such mistakes 🙁
