I don't need anything fixed, I'm just curious about something I noticed.

I'm doing a comparison between a variable and a hard coded char.  Like this:
if ($k1 == "n")

The variable is usually the first key in an array (0) so it should usually
evaluate false, but it was true every time until I changed it to:
if ($k1 === "n")

So I'm assuming that it decided that since $k1 was an int to convert "n" to
an int (which would be 0) and conclude that 0 does indeed equal "n".  So I
decided for fun to try:
if ("n" == $k1)

And it still was true everytime.  So why does it always try convert my
literal to an int instead of use the variable as a string?

Just curious.  Thanks.
