Err never mind it's there in the manual under expressions, I expected it to be in the constants section. sorry, andrew -----Original Message----- From: andrew morton Sent: Monday, May 21, 2001 13:21 To: Php-Windows (E-mail) Subject: [PHP-WIN] Question about TRUE and FALSE Anyone have any idea why the constant TRUE evaluates to 1 but FALSE evaluates to "" and not 0? The fragment if (!"") print "true"; else print "false"; works the same as if (!FALSE) print "true"; else print "false"; I'm used to the Cish behavior of false=0 and true!=0, is this something that was inherited from Perl? andrew -- PHP Windows Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-windows-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-windows-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
