#23400 [Bgs]: "print(2 or 3)" returns wrong result

ID: 23400 User updated by: akukula at min dot pl Reported By: akukula at min dot pl Status: Bogus Bug Type: *Programming Data Structures Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 4.3.1 New Comment: Okay, sorry for the mistake, I have misunderstood that "or" returns it first or second argument instead of true/false. This is my mistake. Please close that bug. Besides, it's a pity that there's no operator that allows me to: $var = $user_entered_value or "default"; ...

For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Thank you for your interest in PHP. This is definately not bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-04-29 02:29:17] akukula at min dot pl Bash command line: $ echo '<?php print(2 or 3) ?>' | php The result is 1 $ echo '<?php $i = 2 or 3; print($i) ?>' | php The result is 2 According to documentation (e.g. the chapter on operators) it should return '2' in both examples.
