PHP type comparison tables

Die folgenden Tabellen zeigen das Verhalten von Typen und Vergleichsoperatoren in PHP, sowohl für schwach und stark typisierte Vergleiche. Dieser Anhang steht im Zusammenhang mit dem Abschnitt zu Type juggling. Anregungen für diesen Abschnitt kamen aus verschiedenen Benuterkommentaren und der Arbeit von » BlueShoes.

Bevor diese Tabellen verwendet werden ist es wichtig die Typen und ihre Bedeutungen zu verstehen. "42" ist zum Beispiel ein string, während 42 ein integer ist. FALSE ist ein boolean, obwohl "false" ein string ist.

Hinweis:

HTML-Formulare übergeben keine integer, float oder boolesche Werte, sie übertragen strings. Um herauszufinden, ob ein string numerisch ist kann man is_numeric() verwenden.

Hinweis:

Wenn man einfach if ($x) verwendet, obwohl $x undefiniert ist, so wird ein Fehler der Stufe E_NOTICE erzeugt. Verwenden sie stattdessen empty() oder isset() und/oder initialisiere sie die verwendeten Variablen.

Vergleiche von $x mittels PHP-Funktionen
Ausdruck gettype() empty() is_null() isset() boolean : if($x)
$x = ""; string TRUE FALSE TRUE FALSE
$x = null NULL TRUE TRUE FALSE FALSE
var $x; NULL TRUE TRUE FALSE FALSE
$x ist undefiniert NULL TRUE TRUE FALSE FALSE
$x = array(); array TRUE FALSE TRUE FALSE
$x = false; boolean TRUE FALSE TRUE FALSE
$x = true; boolean FALSE FALSE TRUE TRUE
$x = 1; integer FALSE FALSE TRUE TRUE
$x = 42; integer FALSE FALSE TRUE TRUE
$x = 0; integer TRUE FALSE TRUE FALSE
$x = -1; integer FALSE FALSE TRUE TRUE
$x = "1"; string FALSE FALSE TRUE TRUE
$x = "0"; string TRUE FALSE TRUE FALSE
$x = "-1"; string FALSE FALSE TRUE TRUE
$x = "php"; string FALSE FALSE TRUE TRUE
$x = "true"; string FALSE FALSE TRUE TRUE
$x = "false"; string FALSE FALSE TRUE TRUE

It's interesting to note that 'empty()' and 'boolean : if($x)'
are paired as logical opposites, as are 'is_null()' and 'isset()'.

Some function to write out your own comparisson table in tsv format. Can be easily modified to add more testcases and/or binary functions. It will test all comparables against each other with all functions.

<?php

'lte' => '<=',
       
'gte' => '>=',

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

Universal comparison test.

<?php

$tests

$tests['==']  = create_function('$a, $b', 'return $a==$b;');
$tests['==='] = create_function('$a, $b', 'return $a===$b;');
$tests['!='] = create_function('$a, $b', 'return $a!=$b;');
$tests['<>'] = create_function('$a, $b', 'return $a<>$b;');
$tests['!=='] = create_function('$a, $b', 'return $a!==$b;');
$tests['<']   = create_function('$a, $b', 'return $a<$b;');
$tests['>']   = create_function('$a, $b', 'return $a>$b;');
$tests['<=']  = create_function('$a, $b', 'return $a<=$b;');
$tests['>=']  = create_function('$a, $b', 'return $a>=$b;');

$comparison = array();
$comparison['TRUE'] = true;
$comparison['FALSE'] = false;
$comparison['1'] = 1;
$comparison['0'] = 0;
$comparison['-1'] = -1;
$comparison['3,14'] = pi();
$comparison['"1"'] = '1';
$comparison['"0"'] = '0';
$comparison['"-1"'] = '-1';
$comparison['NULL'] = null;
$comparison['array()'] = array();
$comparison['"php"'] = 'php';
       
print
'<h1>PHP version '.PHP_VERSION.' type comparison tables</h1>';
       
foreach (
$tests as $test=>$function) {
    print
"<h2>Comparisons with $test</h2>";
    print
"<table border='1'>";
    print
"<tr>";
    print
"<th>&nbsp;</th>";
    foreach (
array_keys($comparison) as $name) {
        print
"<th>$name</th>";
    }
    print
"</tr>";
    foreach (
$comparison as $arg_1_name => $arg_1_value) {
        print
'<tr>';
        print
"<th>$arg_1_name</th>";
        foreach (
$comparison as $arg_2_value) {
            print
'<td>';
            print
$function($arg_1_value, $arg_2_value)==true ?

Compare object

$o2 = new stdClass();
$o2->we = 12;

$o3 = clone $o2;
var_dump($o == $o2); //true
var_dump($o === $o2); //false
var_dump($o3 === $o2); //true

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 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.
