Php floatval get correct values

Question

I need to get the float of a string. But am facing problem with 0 decimal values i.e -

floatval("10000.01") gives 10000.01

but

floatval("10000.00") is giving 10000

I need the later value as 10000.00 too. What am I missing?

Try to use number_format() function instead for the same:

$numberValue = "10000.00";
$numberString = number_format($numberValue, 2);

This is converting it to 10,000. I don't need the commas('), just a simple plain floating number.
