检查数字1的十进制数字

Question

I am having hundreds of numbers like:

0.00100000
0.01000000
0.01000000
1.00000000
0.00001000
0.00000100

I need to check where the number 1 is in those number, so basicly

1.00000000 = 1
0.10000000 = 2
0.01000000 = 3

I tried Round() function, but it sometimes prints numbers like 1.E-6 or something like that, I need exact location of number 1.

Thank you very much for help.

I wouldn't rely too much on the approach you posted in your answer. Use the following function instead:

function index_of_one($dec)
{
  // maximum precision is 15
  $str = str_replace('.','',sprintf('%.15f', $dec));

  $pos = strpos($str, '1');

  if ($pos === false) {
    return -1;
  }

  return ($pos + 1);
}

Example:

$dec1 = 1.00000000;
$dec2 = 0.10000000;
$dec3 = 0.00010000;

echo index_of_one($dec1); // 1
echo index_of_one($dec2); // 2
echo index_of_one($dec3); // 5
