Description
what in PHP is similar to Actionscript 's "is" operator?
Explanation & Answer
Hi,
There are not really similar, but both can provide the same results (solution wise).For example, + operator in action script can be demonstrated by simple codes below
trace ( 3 + 1);
Above expression should deliver an aswer of 4. While in PHP the same expression can be written as
echo ( 3 + 1);
However, in PHP parenthesis is not required. So, this will just work fine
echo 3 + 1 ;
While in actionscript, this
trace 3 + 1;
gives us an error.
In the case concatenation, they are similar with the only exemption of the parenthesis.
in actionscript
trace("3" + 1);
PHP
echo ("3" + 1 );
Keep in mind that the the above only 1 is considered as integer. In PHP, it gives you more freedom to change type from one to the other. For example,
$x = "3";
$y = 1 ;
echo ((int)($x) + $y);
gives us an integer 4, while the example before it gives us string 3 concatenated with integer 1.
