Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions.  Due to the volume
of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not
a bug.  The support channels will be able to provide an explanation
for you.

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

$ php -dprecision=20 -r 'echo 1.22;'

outputs: 1.2199999999999999734


I think it's only the floating point imprecision and not round()-specific.

Description:
------------
as doc said:
precision:
   The number of significant digits displayed in floating point numbers.

so precision suppose to only affect the display format of a float;

but the fact is:

$php -dprecision=14 -r 'echo round(1.22, 2);'
1.22

php -dprecision=20 -r 'echo round(1.22, 2);'
1.2199999999999999734

the eg(precision) affected the round result.

Test script:
---------------
$php -dprecision=14 -r 'echo round(1.22, 2);'


php -dprecision=20 -r 'echo round(1.22, 2);'


Expected result:
----------------
1.22
1.22

Actual result:
--------------
1.22
1.2199999999999999734
