Note Submitter: s dot kapfinger at gmx dot de ---- String conversion to numbers: "The value is given by the initial portion of the string. If the string starts with valid numeric data, this will be the value used. Otherwise, the value will be 0 (zero)" (0 == "info") is false because "inf" means infinity which is not equal to zero. (0 == "iffo") is true as "iffo" does not begin with a numeric value and is therefore converted to zero. (false == "iffo") is false because here, "iffo" is compared to a bool and only empty strings are equal to false
