This PHP package provides an object-oriented wrapper for bcmath
functionality and other common operations for dealing with numbers.
One aim of this project is to provide a greater degree of accuracy when dealing with floating point numbers.
To install the package via Composer, run:
composer require elliotjreed/maths
or include the dependency in your composer.json
file, for example:
"require": {
"php": "^8.1",
"ext-bcmath": "*",
"elliotjreed/maths": "^6.1"
}
There are two base classes, Number
and NumberImmutable
.
Both can take any numeric value in the constructor (i.e. a numeric string such as '1.5'
, an integer such as 150
, a float such as 1.33
, or a scientific notation string such as '8.431e-05'
).
The result can be returned as a string, integer, or float.
For an example of the differences between Number
and NumberImmutable
:
use ElliotJReed\Maths\NumberImmutable;
use ElliotJReed\Maths\Number;
$numberImmutable = new NumberImmutable(10);
$newNumberImmutable = $number->multiply(3);
$numberImmutable->asFloat(); // 10.0
$newNumberImmutable->asFloat(); // 30.0
$number = new Number(15);
$newNumber = $number->multiply(3);
$number->asFloat(); // 45.0
$newNumber->asFloat(); // 45.0
The Number
object is mutable.
Examples:
use ElliotJReed\Maths\Number;
$number = new Number('123.5');
$number->multiply(2);
$number->add(3);
$number->divide(10);
$number->subtract(20);
$number->asFloat(); // 25.0
$number->asInteger(); // 25
$number->asString(); // '25'
$number->asString(1); // '25.0'
$number->asString(2); // '25.00'
$number->asString(3); // '25.000'
$number->isEqualTo(25); // true
$number->isLessThan(30); // true
$number->isGreaterThan(20); // true
$number->isGreaterThanOrEqualTo(25); // true
$number->isLessThanOrEqualTo(25); // true
$number->isZero(); // false
use ElliotJReed\Maths\Number;
$number = new Number(123.5);
$number->multiply(2)->add(3)->divide(10)->subtract(20);
$number->asFloat(); // 25.0
$number->asInteger(); // 25
$number->asString(); // '25'
Numbers can be int
, float
, string
, or instances of Number
.
use ElliotJReed\Maths\Number;
$number = new Number(123.5);
$number->multiply(new Number(2));
$number->add('3');
$number->divide(10.0);
$number->subtract(20);
$number->asFloat(); // 25.0
$number->asInteger(); // 25
$number->asString(); // '25'
use ElliotJReed\Maths\Number;
$number = new Number(10);
$anotherNumber = new Number($number);
$number->asFloat(); // 10.0
$anotherNumber->asFloat(); // 10.0
$number->add(10)->asFloat(); // 20.0
$anotherNumber->add(5)->asFloat(); // 15.0
use ElliotJReed\Maths\Number;
$number = new Number(1.125);
$number->roundToDecimalPlaces(2);
$number->asFloat(); // 1.13
$number->asInteger(); // 1
$number->asString(); // '1.13'
use ElliotJReed\Maths\Number;
$number = new Number(25);
$number->squareRoot();
$number->asFloat(); // 5.0
$number->asInteger(); // 5
$number->asString(); // '5'
use ElliotJReed\Maths\Number;
$number = new Number(5);
$number->raiseToPower(2);
$number->asFloat(); // 5.0
$number->asInteger(); // 5
$number->asString(); // '5'
use ElliotJReed\Maths\Number;
$number = new Number('25');
$number->increaseByPercentage(10);
$number->asFloat(); // 27.5
$number->asInteger(); // 28
$number->asInteger(PHP_ROUND_HALF_DOWN); // 27
$number->asString(); // '27.5'
$number->asString(2); // '27.50'
use ElliotJReed\Maths\Number;
$number = new Number(5.5);
$number->modulus(2.5);
$number->asFloat(); // 0.5
$number->asInteger(); // 1
$number->asInteger(PHP_ROUND_HALF_DOWN); // 0
$number->asString(); // '0.5'
$number->asString(2); // '0.50'
use ElliotJReed\Maths\Number;
$number = new Number('8.431e-05');
$number->asFloat(); // 0.00008431
$number->asString(); // '0.00008431'
The NumberImmutable
class is immutable.
Examples:
use ElliotJReed\Maths\NumberImmutable;
$number = new NumberImmutable('123.5');
$number = $number->multiply(2);
$number = $number->add(3);
$number = $number->divide(10);
$number = $number->subtract(20);
$number->asFloat(); // 25.0
$number->asInteger(); // 25
$number->asString(); // '25'
$number->asString(1); // '25.0'
$number->asString(2); // '25.00'
$number->asString(3); // '25.000'
$number->isEqualTo(25); // true
$number->isLessThan(30); // true
$number->isGreaterThan(20); // true
$number->isGreaterThanOrEqualTo(25); // true
$number->isLessThanOrEqualTo(25); // true
$number->isZero(); // false
use ElliotJReed\Maths\NumberImmutable;
$number = new NumberImmutable(123.5);
$number = $number->multiply(2)->add(3)->divide(10)->subtract(20);
$number->asFloat(); // 25.0
$number->asInteger(); // 25
$number->asString(); // '25'
Numbers can be int
, float
, string
, or instances of Number
.

$number = new NumberImmutable(123.5);
$number = $number->multiply(new NumberImmutable(2));

PHP 8.1 or above and Composer is expected to be installed.
For instructions on how to install Composer visit getcomposer.org.
After cloning this repository, change into the newly created directory and run:
composer install
or if you have installed Composer locally in your current directory:
php composer.phar install
This will install all dependencies needed for the project.
Henceforth, the rest of this README will assume composer
is installed globally (ie. if you are using composer.phar
you will need to use composer.phar
instead of composer
in your terminal / command-line).
Unit testing in this project is via PHPUnit.
All unit tests can be run by executing:
composer phpunit
To have PHPUnit stop and report on the first failing test encountered, run:
composer phpunit:debug
A standard for code style can be important when working in teams, as it means that less time is spent by developers processing what they are reading (as everything will be consistent).
Code formatting is automated via PHP-CS-Fixer. PHP-CS-Fixer will not format line lengths which do form part of the PSR-2 coding standards so these will product warnings when checked by PHP Code Sniffer.
These can be run by executing:
composer phpcs
All of the tests can be run by executing:
composer test
Checking for outdated Composer dependencies can be performed by executing:
composer outdated
Checking that the composer.json is valid can be performed by executing:
composer validate --no-check-publish
If GNU Make is installed, you can replace the above composer
command prefixes with make
.
All of the tests can be run by executing:
make test
Specific output formats better suited to CI platforms are included as Composer scripts.
To output unit test coverage in text and Clover XML format (which can be used for services such as Coveralls):
composer phpunit:ci
To output PHP-CS-Fixer (dry run) and PHPCS results in checkstyle format (which GitHub Actions will use to output a readable format):
composer phpcs:ci
Look at the example in .github/workflows/main.yml.
