#50730 [Bgs]: suggest changing which is does by default--ambiguous

ID: 50730 User updated by: dave at deltatns dot com Reported By: dave at deltatns dot com Status: Bogus Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: wamp PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: I do not agree, as I indicated already that I noticed that, however, it is easily changed to make it clear at the place where I indicated. I did not take the time to enter this because I thought it was bogus, so I take exception to that status. Takes more time to discuss this than to change it... so I am done. I made a valid suggestion... if you do not want to act on it, that is your choice. Good luck, if you always treat suggestions this way. I will certainly avoid making any more. Those of us who are not experts are your best source for suggestions of this type. I am still grateful for this documentation.. Thanks for that.

" to "...its output ( return=false, the default setting will print it)" or some other phrase to remove the ambiguity of what the default might be. I am slower than most people. It took me 15 seconds or so to not read the above with the meaning true will print it. very low priority and maybe not worth doing...just FYI of my read of it. The manual is a really valuable resource,which I use constantly. I am very grateful to all who have contributed and worked on it. Thanks Dave Reproduce code: --------------- --- From manual page: function.print-r#Parameters --- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=50730&edit=1
