Greetings,

This is the example from the php manual:

***************************************
Example 6. sprintf(): formatting currency

<?php
$money1 = 68.75;
$money2 = 54.35;
$money = $money1 + $money2;
// echo $money will output "123.1";
$formatted = sprintf("%01.2f", $money);        // my question comes here
// echo $formatted will output "123.10"
?>
***************************************

I don't understand the meaning of the 01 above, which follows the % sign. I
tried the "%.2f" and "%1.2f", both work fine. So, what's the meaning of
01(especially what the 0 is for)? Seems very much the same as C anyway :-).

Please explain.
