How to make number_format() not to round numbers up

I know that this an old question, but it still actual :) .

How about this function?

function numberFormatPrecision($number, $precision = 2, $separator = '.')
{
    $numberParts = explode($separator, $number);
    $response = $numberParts[0];
    if (count($numberParts)>1 && $precision > 0) {
        $response .= $separator;
        $response .= substr($numberParts[1], 0, $precision);
    }
    return $response;
}

Usage:

// numbers test
numberFormatPrecision(19, 2, '.'); // expected 19 return 19
numberFormatPrecision(19.1, 2, '.'); //expected 19.1 return 19.1
numberFormatPrecision(19.123456, 2, '.'); //expected 19.12 return 19.12
numberFormatPrecision(19.123456, 0, '.'); //expected 19 return 19

// negative numbers test
numberFormatPrecision(-19, 2, '.'); // expected -19 return -19
numberFormatPrecision(-19.1, 2, '.'); //expected -19.1 return -19.1
numberFormatPrecision(-19.123456, 2, '.'); //expected -19.12 return -19.12
numberFormatPrecision(-19.123456, 0, '.'); //expected -19 return -19

// precision test
numberFormatPrecision(-19.123456, 4, '.'); //expected -19.1234 return -19.1234

// separator test
numberFormatPrecision('-19,123456', 3, ','); //expected -19,123 return -19,123  -- comma separator

Function (only precision):

function numberPrecision($number, $decimals = 0)
{
    $negation = ($number < 0) ? (-1) : 1;
    $coefficient = 10 ** $decimals;
    return $negation * floor((string)(abs($number) * $coefficient)) / $coefficient;
}

Examples:

numberPrecision(2557.9999, 2);     // returns 2557.99
numberPrecision(2557.9999, 10);    // returns 2557.9999
numberPrecision(2557.9999, 0);     // returns 2557
numberPrecision(2557.9999, -2);    // returns 2500
numberPrecision(2557.9999, -10);   // returns 0
numberPrecision(-2557.9999, 2);    // returns -2557.99
numberPrecision(-2557.9999, 10);   // returns -2557.9999
numberPrecision(-2557.9999, 0);    // returns -2557
numberPrecision(-2557.9999, -2);   // returns -2500
numberPrecision(-2557.9999, -10);  // returns 0

Function (full functionality):

function numberFormat($number, $decimals = 0, $decPoint = '.' , $thousandsSep = ',')
{
    $negation = ($number < 0) ? (-1) : 1;
    $coefficient = 10 ** $decimals;
    $number = $negation * floor((string)(abs($number) * $coefficient)) / $coefficient;
    return number_format($number, $decimals, $decPoint, $thousandsSep);
}

Examples:

numberFormat(2557.9999, 2, ',', ' ');     // returns 2 557,99
numberFormat(2557.9999, 10, ',', ' ');    // returns 2 557,9999000000
numberFormat(2557.9999, 0, ',', ' ');     // returns 2 557
numberFormat(2557.9999, -2, ',', ' ');    // returns 2 500
numberFormat(2557.9999, -10, ',', ' ');   // returns 0
numberFormat(-2557.9999, 2, ',', ' ');    // returns -2 557,99
numberFormat(-2557.9999, 10, ',', ' ');   // returns -2 557,9999000000
numberFormat(-2557.9999, 0, ',', ' ');    // returns -2 557
numberFormat(-2557.9999, -2, ',', ' ');   // returns -2 500
numberFormat(-2557.9999, -10, ',', ' ');  // returns 0

number_format will always do that, your only solution is to feed it something different:

$number = intval(($number*100))/100;

Or:

$number = floor(($number*100))/100;
