Implicit Conversion
In PHP, operations involving integers and floating-point numbers often result in implicit conversion. When an integer is used in a context where a floating-point number is expected, PHP automatically performs the conversion.
PHP
<?php // Original integer value $intValue = 42; // Implicit conversion to double $doubleValue = $intValue + 0.0; // Display the result echo "Integer: $intValue, Double: $doubleValue" ; ?> |
Output
Integer: 42, Double: 42
