Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] a stupid question
From: igor.feghali@gmail.com ("Igor Feghali")

maybe because "0" evaluating to false is already enough and everything
after that would be "forcing" too much. If "0.0" evaluates to false
then I would ask, why "0.0E1" doesn't ? What about "0.0E2" ? "0.0E10"
? etc. Just my opinion.

regards,
Igor.
