PHP price parsing?

Question

PHP

There are all sorts of options for recording prices:
1000 rubles
1000.00 rubles
1000.00 rubles
And all sorts of others, are there any ready-made solutions for parsing them in float?

Answer 1

Yes,
right on the official PHP website: www.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-match-all.php You
can also try to google

Answer 2

$str = str_replace(' ', '', $string);
preg_match("#(\d+)(\.|,)?(\d+)?#", $str, $matches); // preg_match_all если много цен в одной строке

Answer 3

Zend_Number
example:

$locale = new Zend_Locale('de_AT');
$number = Zend_Locale_Format::getNumber('13.524,678',
                                        array('locale' => $locale,
                                              'precision' => 3)
                                       );
 
print $number; // will return 13524.678

Answer 4

Slightly off topic, but you can’t work with money in floats ...
