Usage Example
$money1 = 68.75;
$money2 = 54.35;
$money = $money1 + $money2;
// At this time, the value of the variable $money is "123.1";
$formatted = sprintf ( "%01.2f", $money);
// At this time, the value of variable $ formatted is "123.10"
?>

What does this %01.2f mean?
First of all, the % symbol means the beginning. It is written at the front to indicate that the specified format is about to start.
That is, the "start character", until the "conversion character" appears, the format ends.
Then what follows the % symbol is 0. This zero is a "fill-in-the-blank character". If the position is empty, fill it with 0.
After 0 is 1. This 1 is a stipulation that the number before the decimal point must occupy more than 1 digit.
If you change 1 to 2 and the value of $money is 1.23, the value of $formatted will be 01.23
Because the number before the decimal point only occupies 1 digit. According to the format specified above, the value before the decimal point The number should occupy 2 digits, but now it only has 1 digit, so fill it with 0s.
So far, the .2 (point 2) after %01 is easy to understand. It means that it is stipulated that the number after the decimal point must occupy 2 digits. If at this time, the value of $money is 1.234 , then the value of $formatted will be 1.23.
