Hi Vladyslav,

I just checked your code snippet, here are my 2 cents:

- bcmath should definitely trigger an error when encountering a malformed
string like '17 .123', silently converting it to zero is indeed the worth
thing to do;
- I don't think that there's much value in having it handle exponential
notation, you can use userland libraries such as brick/math
<https://github.com/brick/math> for this;
- I *really* don't think that it should depend on the current locale, like
PHP sometimes does with numbers; there has been some discussion just a few
months ago to actually stop making float-to-string conversion depend on
locale:
