This documentation is both incorrect and incomplete. Incorrect because it claims "Returns TRUE if every character in text is a decimal digit, FALSE otherwise." In reality it returns false when given an empty string. This is a contradiction. Incomplete because it assumes that the parameter is a string and doesn't specify what would happen if something else is passed. In particular, passing an integer should intuitively work, but doesn't. ---- Server IP: 92.48.100.16 Probable Submitter: 82.6.105.92 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ctype-digit.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/85766 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85766/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85766/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85766/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85766/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85766/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85766/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85766 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/85766 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
