Is this supposed to execute to anything?
I got this:
Warning: require(1) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file
or directory in C:\xampp\htdocs\cowbell.php on line 1
Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required '1'
(include_path='.;C:\xampp\php\PEAR') in C:\xampp\htdocs\cowbell.php on line
1
-- I do know what it means, just thought maybe there was something more
significant to it than this...

About five-and-a-half years ago, we had a brainteasers thread going
on[1]. Last year it was briefly resurrected[2], and both times got some
good content and dialogue going. So I'd like to reprise the thread in
2012, as well. Those of you connected to me on Facebook

If you want to execute some code...
I'm sure you've all heard of the new "goes to" operator by now, but I
hope it might be new to somebody.
$i = 10;
while ($i --> 0) { // while $i goes to 0
echo $i ."\n";
}

Okay, I haven't heard of it, and I don't get it. AFAIK, this "operator"
does not exist, but I don't get the trick that's being applied.

while ($i-- > 0)
