note 109373 added to language.operators.comparison

it looks that if you check 0 against a string with == then PHP returns true: php -r 'var_dump(0 == "statuses");' -> returns TRUE but not if your string has a number at the beginning: php -r 'var_dump(0 == "2statuses");' -> returns FALSE from the specs I get it that it attempts a conversion - in this case the string to number. so better use === as always :) ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 89.30.119.55 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.operators.comparison.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/109373 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109373/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109373/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109373/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109373/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109373/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109373/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/109373 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/109373 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
