Zero-pad digits in string
106
I need to cast single figures (1 to 9) to (01 to 09). I can think of a way but its big and ugly and cumbersome. I'm sure there must be some concise way. Any Suggestions

First of all, your description is misleading. Double is a floating point data type. You presumably want to pad your digits with leading zeros in a string. The following code does that:
$s = sprintf('%02d', $digit);
For more information, refer to the documentation of sprintf.

@HirenBhut Well that’s completely different, and has nothing to do withsprintf. Check the format of integers, in particular the section about octal digits.

There's also str_pad
<?php
$input = "Alien";
echo str_pad($input, 10); // produces "Alien "
echo str_pad($input, 10, "-=", STR_PAD_LEFT); // produces "-=-=-Alien"
echo str_pad($input, 10, "_", STR_PAD_BOTH); // produces "__Alien___"
echo str_pad($input, 6 , "___"); // produces "Alien_"
?>

Solution using str_pad:
str_pad($digit,2,'0',STR_PAD_LEFT);
Benchmark on php 5.3
Result str_pad : 0.286863088608
Result sprintf : 0.234171152115
Code:
$start = microtime(true);
for ($i=0;$i<100000;$i++) {
str_pad(9,2,'0',STR_PAD_LEFT);
str_pad(15,2,'0',STR_PAD_LEFT);
str_pad(100,2,'0',STR_PAD_LEFT);
}
$end = microtime(true);
echo "Result str_pad : ",($end-$start),"n";
$start = microtime(true);
for ($i=0;$i<100000;$i++) {
sprintf("%02d", 9);
sprintf("%02d", 15);
sprintf("%02d", 100);
}
$end = microtime(true);
echo "Result sprintf : ",($end-$start),"n";
