Summary: Casting floats containing an integer to ints gives
wrong result
Status: Open

New Comment:
Float values have a limited precision. Hence a value might
not have the same string representation after any processing. That also
includes writing a float number in your script and directly printing it without
any mathematical operations.
Thank you for your interest in PHP.

echo "\n";
echo (int)('32.55' * 100);
Expected result:
----------------
3255

--------------
3255
3254
