You cannot use floatval() on arrays or objects. intval(): var - The scalar value being converted to an integer Return Values: [...] Empty arrays and objects return 0, non-empty arrays and objects return 1. but both functions are accepting array as var and throw notice on objects Reproduce code: --------------- echo intval(array()); // 0 echo intval(array(1,2,3)); // 1 echo intval(new stdClass); // 1 Notice: Object of class stdClass could not be converted to int in php shell code on line 1 echo floatval(array()); // 0 echo floatval(array(1,2,3)); // 1 echo floatval(new stdClass); // 1 Notice: Object of class stdClass could not be converted to double in php shell code on line 1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=50311&edit=1
