Good Morning,
I finally made a php calculator program which combines compound interest and added fees, The only problem is when I use the the round() function if the fee ends in a zero it does not show the zero. example </php echo round($var,2);?> if $var equals let's say 3.001 the out put will only be 3, if $var equals 7.3000 the output would be 7.3.
what I would like is the output to be rounded to the next cent example if $var equals 3.001 the the output would be 3.00.
Is their a way to accomplish this? I'm sure I could change all the numerals back a hundreth and then multiply $var by .10, but I think the output would be the same.
Well if anyone has a suggestion I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks
