So thanks to @doenietzomoeilijk I've actually found out why this happens! PHP has a default precision: https://3v4l.org/qr0Fh

I don't know what's happening with PHP, https://3v4l.org/bqb2R

PHP floats are a mystery:

>>> 69 - 1.5
=> 67.5
>>> 69 - 1.4
=> 67.6
>>> 69 - 1.9
=> 67.1
>>> 69 - 58.9
=> 10.1
>>> 69 - 68.9
=> 0.099999999999994

but 69.1 - 69 is 0.099999999999994? colour me confusion

Why is in PHP 0.1 + 0.2, 0.3? huh??

So in PHP you actually have fmod! which is the modulo operator for floats :) or you could use this cursed PHP implementation: https://3v4l.org/4BReS

Welcome to Perl6, where (4.2 % 1) is 0.2 or actually stored as (1/5)!

this also counts for Python and Ruby.

Welcome to JavaScript, where (4.2 % 1) is 0.20000000000000018!

Welcome to PHP, where (4.2 % 1) is zero!
