note 75695 added to language.types.integer

This note applies to machines that are using a 32 bit integer size. I imagine the same results occur in 64 bit machines as well (with the number 2^63-1). -2147483648 falls into the range of 32 bit signed integers (0b10000000000000000000000000000000), yet php treats it as a float. However, -2147483647-1 is treated as an integer. The following code demonstrates: <?php var_dump(-2147483648); //float(-2147483648) var_dump(-2147483647 - 1); //int(-2147483648) ?> Regards ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 70.125.148.108 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.integer.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/75695 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/75695/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/75695/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/75695/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/75695/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/75695/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/75695/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/75695 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/75695 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
