PHP 자료형 비교표

다음 테이블은 PHP 자료형 과 느슨한 비교와 엄격한 비교를 위한 비교 연산자의 동작을 설명한다. 이 부록은 자료형 조절에 관한 매뉴얼 섹션과도 관련이 있다. 다양한 유저 주석과 » BlueShoes의 보고서를 통해 영감을 얻을수 있다.

이 테이블을 이용하기 전에, 자료형과 각 자료형의 의미를 이해해야 한다. 예를 들면, "42"는 string형이고, 반면에 42는 integer형이다. FALSE는 boolean형이고, "false"는 string형이 되는것이다.

Note: HTML 폼은 정수, 부동소수점, 논리형으로 전달하지 않는다. 문자열형으로 전달한다. 문자열이 숫자값인지 확인하기 위해서는 is_numeric()를 사용할수 있다.

Note: $x가 선언되지 않았는데 단순히 if ($x)를 수행하면 E_NOTICE 레벨의 에러가 발생할것이다. 대신 empty()나 isset()을 사용하고 그 변수를 초기화시키도록 한다.

The note about object comparison should be corrected. Cloning objects does not imply instances are the same, so === would return FALSE. 



Compare object

<?php

$o = new stdClass();

$o->we = 12;



$o2 = new stdClass();

$o2->we = 12;



$o3 = clone $o2;

var_dump($o == $o2); //true

var_dump($o === $o2); //false

var_dump($o3 === $o2); //false

A comparison table for <=,<,=>,> would be nice...

Following are TRUE (tested PHP4&5):

NULL <= -1

NULL <= 0

NULL <= 1

!(NULL >= -1)

NULL >= 0

!(NULL >= 1)

That was a surprise for me (and it is not like SQL, I would like to have the option to have SQL semantics with NULL...).

Re: omit's comment



The note omit quotes is referring to the VALUE returned, not its name. If you put 42 into a text field, the corresponding array value will be the string "42". The note makes no comment on the array's keys.

the manual said "HTML Forms do not pass integers, floats, or booleans; they pass strings"



while this is true, php will sometimes change the type to either type array, or possibly type integer(no, not a numeric string) if it was used as an array key. php seems to do this when it parses the request data into the predefined variable arrays.



example:



<input type="text" name="foo[5]">

<input type="text" name="foo[7]">



now obviously the browser will send those names as a string. but php will change thier type.



<?php



// $_POST['foo'] is an array

var_dump($_POST['foo']);



foreach ($_POST['foo'] as $key => $val) {

    // the keys 5 and 7 will be type integer

    var_dump($key);

}



?>



because of this, its also a good idea to check the types of your variables.

Note that php comparison is not transitive:



"php" == 0 => true

0 == null => true

null == "php" => false

In case it helps someone, here's a table to compare different Variable tests (created before I found this page!)

In some languages, a boolean is promoted to an integer (with a value of 1 or -1, typically) if used in an expression with an integer. I found that PHP has it both ways:



If you add a boolean with a value of true to an integer with a value of 3, the result will be 4 (because the boolean is cast as an integer).



On the other hand, if you test a boolean with a value of true for equality with an integer with a value of three, the result will be true (because the integer is cast as a boolean).



Surprisingly, at first glance, if you use either < or > as the comparison operator the result is always false (again, because the integer as cast as a boolean, and true is neither greater nor less than true).

<?php


if (strlen($_POST['var']) > 0) {


    // form value is ok


}


?>





When working with HTML forms this a good way to:





(A) let "0" post values through like select or radio values that correspond to array keys or checkbox booleans that would return FALSE with empty(), and;


(B) screen out $x = "" values, that would return TRUE with isset()!





Because HTML forms post values as strings, this is a good way to test variables!





[[Editor Note: This will create a PHP Error of level E_NOTICE if the checked variable (in this case $_POST['var']) is undefined. It may be used after (in conjuection with) isset() to prevent this.]]

The way PHP handles comparisons when multiple types are concerned is quite confusing.



For example:

"php" == 0



This is true, because the string is casted interally to an integer. Any string (that does not start with a number), when casted to an integer, will be 0.
