Hi!

I'm trying to learn some easy php.

Right now I would like to understand how I can take a number, ex: 42.5 and round it up or down to the closest number that ends on 9.

As in: 42.5 would be 39
but 47 would be 49

Which direction do you want 44 to go?

:: thinking ::

Add 1, divide by 10, round to an integer.

I didn't think of that scenario ;) But up :)
I'm making a small code that takes the cost price from my supplier, and converts into the saleprice on my webshop :)

Thank you for your quick response!

add 1, divide by 10, round to an integer, multiply by 10, subtract 1. :)
