i've a question on PHP and mathematical operations.
why 9000.05 - 9000 return 0.049999999999272 and not 0.05 ???
please look that example
function calculate ( $financed, $months, $rate){
$installment = 782.90;
$rate= $rate / 100;
$delta = 0;
$OUT = $financed;
$IN = 0;
for ($t = 1; $t <= $months; $t++){
echo "installment $t \n";
$installment_act = $installment / pow((1 + ($rate / 12)), $t);
$installment_act = round($installment_act, 2);
echo "installment actualized $installment_act \n\n";
$IN += $installment_act;
echo "\t\t\t\t $IN\n";
}
echo "\n IN ($IN) - OUT ($OUT) = ";
$delta = $IN - $OUT;
echo "delta = $delta\n ";
}
calculate(9000, 12, 8);
//RESULT
installment 1

installment 12
installment actualized 722.9
9000.05
IN (9000.05) - OUT (9000) = delta = 0.049999999999272
as you see $IN - $OUT return a wrong result, why? and how could i fix it?
thanks advance for any suggestion
