- whateverer 15y agoAlright, I'll spell it out for you: the behaviour may be what you'd expect from floating-point comparisons, but it doesn't have to be a floating point comparison in the first place.
- jasonlotito 15y agoNo, it doesn't. Language designers make lots of decisions that end up being silly. But they make them. In PHP, if it looks like a number, it will get treated like a number when being compared via ==. It's a simple, well-established, fundamental rule.
