roundTo()

[coreys]

Here's a function for rounding to different places (tenths place, hundredths place, etc etc)

PHP Code:

public function roundTo(val, place) {
  temp.tokens = val.tokenize(".");
  if (temp.tokens[1].substring(place, 1) < 5) temp.decimal = temp.tokens[1].substring(place);
  else if (temp.tokens[1].substring(place, 1) >= 5) temp.decimal = temp.tokens[1].substring(0, 1) + 1;
  temp.newval = temp.tokens[0] @ "." @ temp.decimal;
  return temp.newval
} 


Example:

PHP Code:

temp.value = 10.56;
temp.newvalue = roundTo(temp.value, 1); //rounds to the tenths place, 2 would round to the hundredths place, 3 to the thousandths place, etc etc
echo(temp.newvalue); 


would return "10.6."

Very nice! I might use that later, thanks a ton

[coreys]

Awesome! I can help 5th Graders with there math homework...on Graal!

Purely, in all standards, deserving the name of v6.

Heh, Graal should be called a Massive Multiplayer Calculator. ;P

Useful but this is a much shorter, simpler and overall less cpu-use way to do it:
(also supports more then just 0.1, 0.01, 0.001, etc.)

PHP Code:

public function roundTo(val, place) {
  return int(val/place + 0.5)*place;
} 


Two examples:

PHP Code:

myvalue = 53.42;
roundTo(myvalue, 0.1); 


myvalue would be 53.4

PHP Code:

myvalue = 53.463;
roundTo(myvalue, 0.05); 


myvalue would be 53.45

Basically this just takes value and rounds it to the closest "place".

But oh well, now you are stronger.

This is part of the shared functions package, by the way.

They don't work on mobile servers sadly. But I remember adding a class with all shared functions to Era iPhone, not too sure if it's still around

Ah, good point.
