Good afternoon.

I found this code in a program I'm renovating and think this is very
redundant. Also, it does slow queries down while doing all of the
conversions.

prod_id in the mysql database is declared an integer.

<SQL above>
        where prod_id = '" . (int)$prod_id . "' and
<SQL below>

Question: since $prod_is is already an integer, why would someone convert it
into an integer, then convert it into a string to later have mysql convert
it back into an integer?? Could someone shed some light on the intent behind
this weird code??
