$chillC = round(($chillF - 32) / 1.8);Ray, I didn't make myself, clear enough. This is beyond my ability, you may have not noticed, but most of my site is coded all by me. I'm only asking for a bit of help, so I can't see what the big deal is.RayProudfoot wrote:William,
I've just looked at your website and the dewpoint is -1.1C. I'm not sure why you're asking this question but I hope you remember what Ken has said about him not being your personal advisor.
If PHP doesn't make any sense to you then just leave it alone until you do understand it. You don't seem to be able to resist tinkering with your pages. They're fine. Leave them alone and find something else to do.
Sorry, I've asked the wrong question. Please forgive me, I meant the Wind Chill not the Dew Point.RayProudfoot wrote:William,
If the Dew Point is already being displayed to one decimal place what are you trying to achieve?
You're asking Ken to help yet again when he's already made it abundantly clear to you that he's not your personal assistant.
If you want help just post the question without directing it to Ken. But as I said I don't understand why you need to make the change.
Nowhere in your code did you say how many decimal places you wanted - so defaults to 0.Example #1 round() examples
<?php
echo round(3.4); // 3
echo round(3.5); // 4
echo round(3.6); // 4
echo round(3.6, 0); // 4
echo round(1.95583, 2); // 1.96
echo round(1241757, -3); // 1242000
echo round(5.045, 2); // 5.05
echo round(5.055, 2); // 5.06
?>

Then why are you harassing the good guys - Don't bother replying, it just wastes thread space ....... I'm not wanting to display 2.0C! I'm wanting to display the 'actual' wind chill. Anyway, I've posted my query on http://www.phphelp.com because you guys, won't help me!beteljuice wrote:Nowhere in your code did you say how many decimal places you wanted - so defaults to 0.
.... but, that is purely working with the number, to display eg. 2.0 you need to use another function on the rounded figure you just produced. (Which is also mentioned on the example page you quoted).
I know these are NOT saratogaWX problems! Where does it say, they are?These are NOT saratogaWX problems, they are self-created william problems.
If everyone asked asked all the questions you do, by breaking as many things as you do, the web would grind to a halt !Code: Select all

Why not choose to not respond, rather than repeatedly berate the young man?

Advice being ignored? No way! I'm taking everything on board! If I thought that I was going to ignore everyone, I wouldn't be typing this post!water01 wrote:Could that be because when advise is given it is ignored, even though he keeps asking the same type of question over an over again.
I think the phrase that comes to mind is "you can take a horse to water but you can't make him drink".
And I can appreciate that (I'm a dad with 3 teenagers). Recently, it just seems to have crossed a point where the punishment exceeds the crime.water01 wrote:Could that be because when advise is given it is ignored, even though he keeps asking the same type of question over an over again.

All of which is evidenced by his interactions on the forums.Asperger syndrome (AS), also known as Asperger's syndrome or Asperger disorder, is an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) that is characterized by significant difficulties in social interaction, alongside restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior and interests. It differs from other autism spectrum disorders by its relative preservation of linguistic and cognitive development.
