#38888 [NEW]: gmp_init treats leading zero as octal

From: php at richardneill dot org Operating system: PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: gmp_init treats leading zero as octal Description: ------------ The documentation for gmp_init implies that a number will only be parsed as hexadecimal if it begins with 0x, and decimal otherwise. Thus: "10" means ten "0x10" means sixteen "010" means ten. However, in practice, "010" is parsed as eight!. Not sure whether this is a documentation bug, or an actual bug though. Personally, I'd prefer "010" to mean ten, but I am aware of some conventions in which it means octal. Confusingly: $x=010 //$x is eight $x="010" //$x is ten Please also correct the comment I added to the gmp_init page - I said that it 010 was parsed as hex, when I meant octal. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=38888&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38888&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38888&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38888&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38888&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38888&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38888&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38888&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38888&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38888&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38888&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38888&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38888&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38888&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38888&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38888&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38888&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38888&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38888&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38888&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=38888&r=mysqlcfg
