I say, "I dunno". :-) It seems to follow C's printf(3) conversion
specification. If a decimal point is needed for a float, it must also
have a digit in front of the decimal point. This is kind of annoying if
I want to print decimal-only values without preceding zeroes. Maybe
money_format() is a better solution.
: BTW, what's the 1 used for?
Specifies the minimum character width of the conversion. See PHP's
sprintf() docs for more details.
