The division operator already returns an integer. Or should I just use > intdiv()? > Wow. I just finally understood what your RFC was going for. I thought you were trying to cover the case where ($a%$b)==0, but you're not, you're trying to do truncated integer division regardless of remainder. I also missed the fact that div_function does the right thing already as well. My bad for emailing from the bus.
Okay, that's another animal entirely. Do we need a new operator for that? It feels un-php to me, and the kind of problem bigint objects should be meant to solve. On the other hand, having $a/$b != $a/$b (Off by more than 100 in this instance). But back on the first hand, that's consistent with other operations on large floats anyway. PHP_INT_MAX + 1 != One more than PHP_INT_MAX, for example. -Sara -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
