Hi all!
In the following issue, there was a proposal to add support for scientific notation in BCMath.
https://github.com/php/php-src/issues/17876
I agree with this and have already created a prototype.
https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/18068
The prototype allows to pass scientific notation values to both functions and classes in the
same way as normal numeric string.
The Number class could add a method to convert strings to scientific notation, or it could simply
not accept scientific notation in the constructor and create a dedicated static method for it.
We can also choose not to accept scientific notation in BCMath functions.
Could you please give your opinion on this?
Regards,
Saki
