<?php echo 'PHP '.PHP_VERSION.'<br>'; $qty = 1000; $arr = array(); for ($i = 0; $i < $qty; $i++){ $arr[] = rand(-100, 100); } $start = microtime(true); for ($i = 0; $i < $qty; $i++){ foreach ($arr as $v){ $v = abs($v); } } echo number_format(microtime(true) - $start, 4).'<br>'; $start = microtime(true); for ($i = 0; $i < $qty; $i++){ foreach ($arr as $v){ if ($v < 0) $v = abs($v); } } echo number_format(microtime(true) - $start, 4).'<br>'; $start = microtime(true); for ($i = 0; $i < $qty; $i++){ foreach ($arr as $v){ if ($v < 0) $v *= -1; } } echo number_format(microtime(true) - $start, 4).'<br>'; ?> Result: PHP 7.1.33 0.0910 0.0710 0.0550 Conclusion: better to check before using the feature that the number is less than zero. Even better use multiplication by -1 than this function. ---- Server IP: 45.112.84.4 Probable Submitter: 45.112.85.245 (proxied: 194.12.65.233) ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.abs.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/125878 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/125878/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/125878/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/125878/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/125878/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/125878/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/125878/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/125878 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/125878 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
