Err never mind it's there in the manual under expressions, I expected it
to be in the constants section.

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?
