Shorten a string

[rnawky]

how do I make a string go from 0.016546874 to 0.0165?

Assuming it is an float, you can use the round() (http://php.net/round) function. Or if it is a string, you can use substr() (http://php.net/substr)

Examples:

// Round function
$new_float = round($old_float, 4);

// Substr function
$new_str = substr($old_str, 0, 6);

Or...
echo "Script executed in ".number_format($time,4)." seconds";
