Actual: Using the T_POW operator in a const statement produces a Parse Error with message: "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '**' (T_POW)" Test script: --------------- <?php const MOLE = 2 ** 27; echo MOLE; Expected result: ---------------- 134217728 Actual result: -------------- Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '**' (T_POW) in example.php on line 2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=66822&edit=1
