[PHP-DEV] Comparison style From: Jon Parise (jon <email protected>)
Date: 05/14/01

I was just perusing some of the PEAR code, and a certain
condition caught my eye:

    if ("" == $content)

My habit has always been to write that sort of condition using
the style:

    if ($content == "")

(leaving the unknown value on the left side of the comparison
operator)

Is one of these styles preferable to the other, either always or
in certain instances?
