I don't know which is actually quicker, but I would guess that the first
case would take longer since it PHP has to evaluate "$r != 0" instead of
just doing whatever is in the "else { ... }" clause.
If you want clarity, why not:
if($r == 0) {
...
} else { // $r != 0
}
that gets you the clarity, but keeps PHP from having to evaluate it.
