Note Submitter: kunal dot b at indiaproperty dot com ---- Note that in atleast in PHP 5.5.9 (Zend Engine v2.5.0), str_split with an integer value as an argument may return unpredictable results. If your number contains leading 0's, the result array is unprdictable as it may contain any number of digits from the argument or (mostly) just a 0. Here are a list of possible values that might be returned: -Interger <?php print_r(str_split(0080450)); // does not work print_r(str_split(strval(0080450))); // neither this /* * Outputs: * Array * ( * [0] => 0 * ) */ ?> BUT <?php print_r(str_split(80450)); // works fine print_r(str_split(strval(80450))); // so does this /* * Outputs: * ( * [0] => 8 * [1] => 0 * [2] => 4 * [3] => 5 * [4] => 0 * ) */ ?> Floating point numbers have their leading and trailing 0s cut off: <?php print_r(str_split(0080450.0010)); // works but.. print_r(str_split(strval(0080450.0010))); // same here.. /* Outputs: * Array * ( * [0] => 8 * [1] => 0 * [2] => 4 * [3] => 5 * [4] => 0 * [5] => . * [6] => 0 * [7] => 0 * [8] => 1 * ) */ ?> I'm not sure if this can be considered a bug, since this is due to how type conversion and casting works, so i just posted it here. I've notced that this is how strval() works. Can anyone shed light into this?..
