json_encode adding lots of decimal digits
Why is this happening? Can I prevent this? (besides passing them as string)
var_dump(json_encode([1002.31, 2002.42]));outputs:
string(39) "[1002.3099999999999,2002.4200000000001]"Solution:
You should configure ‘precision‘ and ‘serialize_precision’ params
precision = 14
serialize_precision = -1Test case:
php -r 'var_dump(json_encode([1002.31, 2002.42]));'
string(39) "[1002.3099999999999,2002.4200000000001]"
php -r 'ini_set("precision", 14); ini_set("serialize_precision", -1); var_dump(json_encode([1002.31, 2002.42]));'
string(17) "[1002.31,2002.42]"Quick Solution:
Add this to the top of code. to stop this behavior.
ini_set('serialize_precision','-1');
