Note Submitter: user5235235235 ---- Er, no. "final at skilled dot ch" failed to realised the two functions are being run at different times, not simultaneously. <?php // These will both sometimes return true print_r(time() < floor(microtime(true)));// Comparison 1 print_r(floor(microtime(true)) < time());// Comparison 2 // Yet these will never return true print_r(floor(microtime(true)) > time());// Exactly the same as comparison 1, apart from running order print_r(time() > floor(microtime(true)));// Exactly the same as comparison 2, apart from running order ?> Remember folks, left-to-right for arithmetic (boolean, bitwise or otherwise) and right-to-left for assignment.
