如果你事先不知道你有一个浮点数还是一个整数，如果字符串可能包含特殊字符（如空格、欧元等），并且如果它可以包含多于1个点或逗号，您可以使用此功能：

// This function strip spaces and other characters from a string and return a number.
// It works for integer and float.
// It expect decimal delimiter to be either a '.' or ','
// Note: everything after an eventual 2nd decimal delimiter will be removed.
function stringToNumber($string) {
    // return 0 if the string contains no number at all or is not a string:
    if (!is_string($string) || !preg_match('/\d/', $string)) {
        return 0;
    } 

    // Replace all ',' with '.':
    $workingString = str_replace(',', '.', $string);

    // Keep only number and '.':
    $workingString = preg_replace("/[^0-9.]+/", "", $workingString);

    // Split the integer part and the decimal part,
    // (and eventually a third part if there are more 
    //     than 1 decimal delimiter in the string):
    $explodedString = explode('.', $workingString, 3);

    if ($explodedString[0] === '') {
        // No number was present before the first decimal delimiter, 
        // so we assume it was meant to be a 0:
        $explodedString[0] = '0';
    } 

    if (sizeof($explodedString) === 1) {
        // No decimal delimiter was present in the string,
        // create a string representing an integer:
        $workingString = $explodedString[0];
    } else {
        // A decimal delimiter was present,
        // create a string representing a float:
        $workingString = $explodedString[0] . '.' .  $explodedString[1];
    }

    // Create a number from this now non-ambiguous string:
    $number = $workingString * 1;

    return $number;
}

在一次编程面试中，我遇到了这样一个问题：“假设你正在编写一个内置函数，用PHP将整数转换为字符串，你会如何编写该函数”。这里有一个解决方案。

$nums = ["0","1","2","3","4","5","6","7","8","9"];
$int = 15939; 
$string = ""; 
while ($int) { 
    $string .= $nums[$int % 10]; 
    $int = (int)($int / 10); 
} 
$result = strrev($string);

PHP将在限制范围内为您提供

<?php
   $str = "3.148";
   $num = $str;

   printf("%f\n", $num);
?>

//Get Only number from string
$string = "123 Hello Zahid";
$res = preg_replace("/[^0-9]/", "", $string);
echo $res."<br>";
//Result 123

使用一元运算符（+）。例如：

$n1 = +'7';
$n2 = '2.34';
$n2 = +$n1;

var_dump（$n1）：int（7）var_dump（$n2）：浮点（2.34）

我发现在JavaScript中，将字符串转换为数字的简单方法是将其乘以1。它解决了连接问题，因为“+”符号在JavaScript中有多种用途，而“*”符号纯粹用于数学乘法。

基于我在这里看到的关于PHP自动愿意将包含字符串的数字解释为数字（以及关于加法的注释，因为在PHP中，“+”纯粹是用于数学加法）的内容，这种乘法技巧也适用于PHP。

我已经测试过了，它确实有效。。。尽管取决于获取字符串的方式，您可能需要在乘以1之前对其应用trim（）函数。
