Note Submitter: lordfarquaad at notredomaine dot net ---- What about : <?php $num = (int) $num; ?> It seems to me the easier way to convert a string to an integer, if you don't want to change the base. I think it's better than + 0 in long instructions. For exemple this will produce the awaited result: <?php $num = pi(); echo (int) $num * 10; // prints 30, not 31 ?> with + 0 you would use brackets...
