Money

Money is a delicate element and must be handled precisely. With the Money class a precise representation of float up to the precision of 4 decimal places is supported.

Initialization

The initialization can be done by providing an integer, float or string representation. The following list describes how different scalar types get converted.

• (int) 12300 = 1.23
• (float) 1.23 = 1.23
• (string) 1.23 = 1.23

The max and min money values that can be represented on a 32bit system are 214,748.3647 and -214,748.3647 which is most of the time not sufficient. On 64bit systems however the max and min values that can be represented are 922,337,203,685,477.5807 and -922,337,203,685,477.5807.

Operations

The Money class follows the builder pattern. The provided operations are addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, absolute and power.

Example

$money = new Money(1234567, ',', '.', '$', 0);
$money->add(1.0)->sub(10000)->mult('-1.0')->div(new Money(-1.0));
echo $money->getCurrency(); // $123.46
