 New Comment:

print is a language construct and not a function and since the
parenthesis are optional its really:

print '' && false

Where the second expression is considered part of the first.

Description:
------------
"print('') && false" returns integer 1, but "false &&
print('')" and
"(int)1 && false" returns false

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
var_dump((print('') && false)); // int(1)
?>


Expected result:
----------------
returns bool(false)

Actual result:
--------------
return int(1)
