[PHP] variable declaration in class

Can anyone explain me why the following code causes the parse error "... unexpected * ... " ? class test { var $a = 2*10; } Of course I know why there's a parse error, but I don't know the reason why PHP doesn't allow this multiplication, although it allows a statement like e.g. var $a = 20.
