Adding numbers doesn't give expected results

I have 3 numbers returned from a database that I need to add together. For 开发者_运维知识库a total of 1,740.01, I get like 10.00. These are floating point numbers. Here are the actual numbers I'm having a problem with.

> 1,729.13
> 10.88
> 0.00

How do I get the correct total of these numbers?

EDIT

$cash = preg_replace('/\$/', '', $cash);
$card = preg_replace('/\$/', '', $card);
$check = preg_replace('/\$/', '', $check);

$cash = number_format(array_sum($cash), 2);
$card = number_format(array_sum($card), 2);
$check = number_format(array_sum($check), 2);
$total  = number_format( $cash + $card + $check, 2 );

Don't add values that have been formatted using number_format(), otherwise they may well contain , as a thousand's separator... they're treated as strings rather than floats.

Assuming that $cash, $card and $check are arrays:

$cash = array_sum($cash);
$card = array_sum($card);
$check = array_sum($check);

$total  = number_format( $cash + $card + $check, 2 ); 

$cash = number_format( $cash, 2 );
$card = number_format( $card, 2 );
$check = number_format( $check, 2 );

Do any formatting after the math

EDIT

Use str_replace() rather than preg_replace() to strip out any $, then it's simple addition rather than needing to do the array_sum(), though I'm not sure where any $ is likely to come from if the values are DECIMAL 10,7 from the database

$cash = (float) str_replace( array('$',','), '', $cash );
$card = (float) str_replace( array('$',','), '', $card );
$check = (float) str_replace( array('$',','), '', $check );

$total  = number_format( $cash + $card + $check, 2 ); 

$cash = number_format( $cash, 2 );
$card = number_format( $card, 2 );
$check = number_format( $check, 2 );

(assumes that , is your thousands separator in the string values for $cash, $card and $check when doing the str_replace()

EDIT 2

To convert the $cash array to a sum of its values, having cleaned up any $ or , in the strings:

$cash = array ( 0 => '$1729.13', 1 => '0.00', 2 => '$1,234.56' );

function cleanArrayValues($value) {
    return (float) str_replace( array('$',','), '', $value );
}

$cash = array_sum(array_map('cleanArrayValues',$cash));

I've added an extra value into the $cash array just to demonstrate.

You'll need to filter $card and $checks in the same way, using the cleanArrayValues() callback function (if they're all arrays)
