note 49849 added to language.types.type-juggling

Uneven division of an integer variable by another integer variable will result in a float by automatic conversion -- you do not have to cast the variables to floats in order to avoid integer truncation (as you would in C, for example): $dividend = 2; $divisor = 3; $quotient = $dividend/$divisor; print $quotient; // 0.66666666666667 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.type-juggling.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+49849 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49849&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49849&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49849&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49849&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49849&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+49849&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
