[PHP-DEV] bigger than 32 bit int (and signed!) From: jeremy brand (jeremy <email protected>)
Date: 12/28/00

Are there plans to do double precision numbers in PHP? The reason I
ask is that I use MySQL a lot, and they support INT:32 bits (signed
and not) and also BIGINT: 64 bits (signed and not).

It would be really nice to have larger number support in PHP. BC math
is a nice hack (but limited to what you can do), but it would be truly
nice to have large and unsigned numbers in PHP.

<sarcasm>
Doesn't it just make you jealous that MySQL can do it but PHP can't?

Just my $0.05. Let me know if you need more...
