Wrong. From http://php.net/manual/en/language.operators.errorcontrol.php :
------
PHP supports one error control operator: the at sign (@). When prepended
to an expression in PHP, any error messages that might be generated by
that expression will be ignored.
------
The @ operator suppresses any error *message*, but leaves the return
value intact.
Just imagine that with your interpretation in the following snippet
$conn = @mysql_connect(...)
$conn would always be set to 0...

I sat laughing snidely into my notebook until they showed me a PC running
Linux. And oh! It was as though the heavens opened and God handed down a
client-side OS so beautiful, so graceful, and so elegant that a million
Microsoft developers couldn't have invented it even if they had a hundred
years and a thousand crates of Jolt cola.
