You can see the difference between true and 1 if you use the === operator in your if statement rather than ==. In your examples you were implicitly converting from a boolean type to an integer or a string. Try this: print gettype(true) . "<br>\n"; print gettype(0 + true) . "<br>\n"; print gettype('' . true) .
