There’s no type promotion from a userland perspective, it’s entirely an implementation detail. Yes, some integers may be IS_LONG and others may be IS_BIGINT internally, but that’s only for Zend Engine 3 (might change in future), the boundary point varies by platform, and crucially, you can’t distinguish them from userland. -- Andrea Faulds http://ajf.me/
