you can also use typecasting instead of functions:
(float) $value;. This is little faster than floatval($value)Narendrasingh Sisodia
Yes you're right but than can be the tedious task to place it all over those strings @ling.s
It's really silly, but you can simply add 0 to get this effect.
echo "0.50" + 0;
echo "1.00" + 0;

You can find the above answer here, stackoverflow.com/questions/14531679/…
This can do a trick:
<?php
$string = "1.50";
echo (float)$string;
?>
This gives
1.5

You can also do like this :
echo +'1.00';
echo +'0.50';

try this function
<?php
$data = "1.00";
$arr = explode(".",$data);
$formated_nunber=formatNumber($arr);
function formatNumber($arr){
if($arr[1]==00){
$finalStr=$arr[0];
return $finalStr;
}
else if(substr($arr[1],-1)==0){
$arr[1]=rtrim($arr[1],substr($arr[1],-1));
$finalStr=implode(".",$arr);
return $finalStr;
}else{
$finalStr=implode(".",$arr);
return $finalStr;
}
}
echo "<pre>";print_r($formated_nunber);
//echo $whatIWant;
?>

Use number_format(0.50, 1). That will do the trick.

Code-only answers are not as helpful as answers that have working code plus helpful explanations. In this case, it would be worthwhile explaining this answer to a 5 year old.
echo number_format(0.50, 1)
