I'm a little confused how the php function boolval
works. Consider the following
<?php echo boolval(true); // prints 1
And contrast with
<?php echo boolval(false); // prints nothing?
Why am I not getting back either true/false? And why is boolval(false)
returning nothing?
I ran into this problem while trying to parse $argv
for a boolean argument. What's the correct of extracting a bool value from $argv
if not with this function?
Following the examples in the documentation, this would be the way to show boolean values:
echo 'false: '.(boolval(false) ? 'true' : 'false')."\n";
See: http://php.net/manual/en/function.boolval.php
The manual also says:
A boolean TRUE value is converted to the string "1". Boolean FALSE is converted to "" (the empty string). This allows conversion back and forth between boolean and string values.
From the php manual
A boolean TRUE value is converted to the string "1". Boolean FALSE is converted to "" (the empty string). This allows conversion back and forth between boolean and string values.
use
echo $boolres ? 'true' : 'false';
