Hi guys and gals,

I'm not screaming "Bug! Bug!" but this _does_ look 'illogical' to me. I've
searched the archives, but found no earlier conversation. Sorry if
I missed it. Consider the following code:

var_dump(in_array('test', array(0)));

What does this return? I expect bool(false), but it returns bool(true).
After some searching the web, I bumped into this:
http://www.phpdiscuss.com/article.php?id=67763&group=php.bugs

Basically, it is said by derick [at] php.net that this behavior is
expected. The following code :

var_dump('test' == 0);

also returns bool(true). But my logic tells me, that if 'test' == 0, then :

if (0) {
  ...
}

should do the same as 

if ('test') {
  ...
}

but it doesn't! The first if-statement is _not_ executed, the latter is.
In my opinion, this is not correct. Any thoughts on this? Am I not seeing
the logic here?

Thanks for your thoughts.

Ivo Fokkema
