function convert_to_number($number) {
    return is_numeric($number) ? ($number + 0) : FALSE;

//Get Only number from string

//Result 123

在PHP中，您可以使用intval（string）或floatval（字符串）函数将字符串转换为数字。

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;
}

PHP将在限制范围内为您提供

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

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

好的，所以我刚刚遇到了这个问题。我的问题是所讨论的数字/字符串具有不同的位数。有些没有小数，有些有几个。所以对我来说，使用int、float、double、intval或floatval都会根据数字给出不同的结果。

所以，简单的解决方案。。。将字符串除以服务器端的1。这会将其强制为一个数字，并保留所有数字，同时修剪不必要的0。它不漂亮，但它有效。
