Be aware:
$exp1 = "1E5";
$exp2 = "2E4";
$ans1 = bcadd((float)$exp1, (float)$exp2, 3);
$ans2 = bcadd((int)$exp1, (int)$exp2, 3);
$ans3 = bcadd($exp1, $exp2, 3);
echo "1: $exp1 + $exp2 = $ans1\r\n";
echo "2: $exp1 + $exp2 = $ans2\r\n";
echo "3: $exp1 + $exp2 = $ans3\r\n";
1: 1E5 + 2E4 = 120000.000
2: 1E5 + 2E4 = 3.000
3: 1E5 + 2E4 = 0.000
