Re: getting a number range from user input.. (weight)

OK, here is what it should do.

I have a fixed range of weights from .5 to 20.0 Kg (kilogram) and for
each weight it has a succeeding value, i cannot jump or just round off
the numbers. So i need a range detector to do it.

Because for each of the item below:

> weight   value
> .5            9.45
> 1.0         10.71
> 1.5         11.97
> 2.0         13.23

I must get the exact value, so let say for example. I have 1.3 it
should fall under 1.5 the idea i had was to do this, so i can detect
where the number should fall..

range:
.0000 => .5
1.001 => 1
1.501 => 2
2.001 => 2.5
2.501 => 3
3.001 => 3.5

and so on..

But i dont know how to do this on PHP
