note 103664 added to function.define

To angelos: Constants starting with a zero *do* work. However, a number that starts with a zero is an OCTAL number. That is, each digit goes from 0 through 7. Since you are writing 9900, you are giving it an invalid octal number. If you gave it a valid number, like 06600, it would work (that gives 3456 in decimal). ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 93.203.242.8 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.define.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/103664 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103664/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103664/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103664/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103664/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103664/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103664/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103664 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/103664 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
