ID: 16366 Updated by: sander@php.net Reported By: adam@adeptsoftware.com -Status: Open +Status: Closed Bug Type: Math related Operating System: WinXP PHP Version: 4.1.2 New Comment: AFAIK, PHP stores any number from MySQL as a string, until you access it as a number. If you try to do some math on that number, that will probably not work as expected. Bitshifting won't work either. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-31 11:48:25] adam@adeptsoftware.com echo (11>>34) produces "2" Also PHP docs state that the max integer is "usually" 32 bits. So what is an unsigned bigint from mysql stored as, and can I use the bit shift operator on it? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=16366&edit=1
