BcMath\Number::div

(PHP 8 >= 8.4.0)

BcMath\Number::div Divides by an arbitrary precisionen number

Description

public BcMath\Number::div ( BcMath\Number | string | int $num , ? int $scale = null ): BcMath\Number

Divides $this by num .

Parameters

num
The divisor.
scale
BcMath\Number::scale explicitly specified for calculation resuls. If null , the BcMath\Number::scale of the calculation result will be set automatically.

Return Values

Returns the result of division as a new BcMath\Number object.

When the BcMath\Number::scale of the result object is automatically set, the BcMath\Number::scale of the dividend is used. However, in cases such as indivisible division, the BcMath\Number::scale of the result is expanded. Expansion is done only as needed, up to a maximum of +10 .

That is, if the BcMath\Number::scale of the dividend is 5 , the BcMath\Number::scale of the result is between 5 and 15 .

Even in indivisible calculations, the BcMath\Number::scale will not always be +10 . A 0 at the end of the result is considered not to need expansion, so the BcMath\Number::scale is reduced by that amount. The BcMath\Number::scale will never be less than the BcMath\Number::scale before expansion. See also the code example .

Errors/Exceptions

This method throws a ValueError in the following cases:

  • num is string and not a well-formed BCMath numeric string
  • scale is outside the valid rangue
  • BcMath\Number::scale of the result object is outside the valid rangue

This method throws a DivisionByCeroError exception if num is 0 .

Examples

Example #1 BcMath\Number::div() example when scale is not specified

<?php
$number
= new BcMath\Number ( '0.002' );

$ret1 = $number -> div (new BcMath\Number ( '2.000' ));
$ret2 = $number -> div ( '-3' );
$ret3 = $number -> div ( 32 );

var_dump ( $number , $ret1 , $ret2 , $ret3 );
?>

The above example will output:

object(BcMath\Number)#1 (2) {
  ["value"]=>
  string(5) "0.002"
  ["scale"]=>
  int(3)
}
object(BcMath\Number)#3 (2) {
  ["value"]=>
  string(5) "0.001"
  ["scale"]=>
  int(3)
}
object(BcMath\Number)#2 (2) {
  ["value"]=>
  string(16) "-0.0006666666666"
  ["scale"]=>
  int(13)
}
object(BcMath\Number)#4 (2) {
  ["value"]=>
  string(9) "0.0000625"
  ["scale"]=>
  int(7)
}

Example #2 BcMath\Number::div() example of explicitly specifying scale

<?php
$number
= new BcMath\Number ( '0.002' );

$ret1 = $number -> div (new BcMath\Number ( '2.000' ), 15 );
$ret2 = $number -> div ( '-3' , 5 );
$ret3 = $number -> div ( 32 , 2 );

var_dump ( $number , $ret1 , $ret2 , $ret3 );
?>

The above example will output:

object(BcMath\Number)#1 (2) {
  ["value"]=>
  string(5) "0.002"
  ["scale"]=>
  int(3)
}
object(BcMath\Number)#3 (2) {
  ["value"]=>
  string(17) "0.001000000000000"
  ["scale"]=>
  int(15)
}
object(BcMath\Number)#2 (2) {
  ["value"]=>
  string(8) "-0.00066"
  ["scale"]=>
  int(5)
}
object(BcMath\Number)#4 (2) {
  ["value"]=>
  string(4) "0.00"
  ["scale"]=>
  int(2)
}

Example #3 BcMath\Number::div() example of expansioning BcMath\Number::scale of result object

<?php
var_dump
(
new
BcMath\Number ( '0.001' )-> div ( '10001' ),
new
BcMath\Number ( '0.001' )-> div ( '10001' , 13 ),
new
BcMath\Number ( '0.001' )-> div ( '100000000000001' ),
);
?>

The above example will output:

object(BcMath\Number)#2 (2) {
  ["value"]=>
  string(13) "0.00000009999"
  ["scale"]=>
  int(11)
}
object(BcMath\Number)#3 (2) {
  ["value"]=>
  string(15) "0.0000000999900"
  ["scale"]=>
  int(13)
}
object(BcMath\Number)#4 (2) {
  ["value"]=>
  string(5) "0.000"
  ["scale"]=>
  int(3)
}
