Consider the following: http://3v4l.org/fR1pE For instance, the spec does not mention anything about the ~ in conjunction with strings: https://github.com/php/php-langspec/blob/master/spec/10-expressions.md#unary-arithmetic-operators The section about bitwise operator mentions that the return type would be int and that the operands would be converted to integers, which is both wrong for strings: https://github.com/php/php-langspec/blob/master/spec/10-expressions.md#bitwise-inclusive-or-operator etc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=68562&edit=1
