Answer 1

Try this simple PHP function:

= 1) {
        $NDat = array();
        foreach ($numbers as $n)
            $NDat[abs($number - $n)] = $n;
        ksort($NDat);
        $NDat   = array_values($NDat);
        $output = $NDat[0];
    }
    return $output;
}

echo nearest(90, array(0, 50, 89, 150, 200, 250));
?>
