Octal and Decimal Numbers
I am trying to assign a variable the value of 0123, but it keeps coming up with a different number, what's the problem?
✍: FYIcenter
If you assign a variable with a value of 0123, PHP will interpret as an octal number resulting to decimal value of 83.
All numbers that preceded with a 0 (zero) will be interpreted as octabl numbers. This is one of the PHP literal data rules. For example, the PHP script below will produce: 83 and 123.
<?php $octal = 0123; // octal number (equivalent to 83 decimal) $decimal = 123; // decimal number echo $octal ."\n"; echo $decimal ."\n"; ?>
