intval
(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7)
intval — Get the integer value of a variable
Description
int intval ( mixed $var [, int $base = 10 ] ) Returns the integer value of var, using the specified base for the conversion (the default is base 10). intval() should not be used on objects, as doing so will emit an E_NOTICE level error and return 1.
Parameters
var
The scalar value being converted to an integer
base
The base for the conversion
Note: If
baseis 0, the base used is determined by the format ofvar:
- if string includes a "0x" (or "0X") prefix, the base is taken as 16 (hex); otherwise,
- if string starts with "0", the base is taken as 8 (octal); otherwise,
- the base is taken as 10 (decimal).
Return Values
The integer value of var on success, or 0 on failure. Empty arrays return 0, non-empty arrays return 1.
The maximum value depends on the system. 32 bit systems have a maximum signed integer range of -2147483648 to 2147483647. So for example on such a system, intval('1000000000000') will return 2147483647. The maximum signed integer value for 64 bit systems is 9223372036854775807.
Strings will most likely return 0 although this depends on the leftmost characters of the string. The common rules of integer casting apply.
Examples
Example #1 intval() examples
The following examples are based on a 32 bit system.
<?php
echo intval(42); // 42
echo intval(4.2); // 4
echo intval('42'); // 42
echo intval('+42'); // 42
echo intval('-42'); // -42
echo intval(042); // 34
echo intval('042'); // 42
echo intval(1e10); // 1410065408
echo intval('1e10'); // 1
echo intval(0x1A); // 26
echo intval(42000000); // 42000000
echo intval(420000000000000000000); // 0
echo intval('420000000000000000000'); // 2147483647
echo intval(42, 8); // 42
echo intval('42', 8); // 34
echo intval(array()); // 0
echo intval(array('foo', 'bar')); // 1
?>Notes
Note: The
baseparameter has no effect unless thevarparameter is a string.
