| Версия | Описание |
|---|---|
| Since 4.0.6 | The function will now return integer results if possible, before this it always returned a float result. For older versions, you may receive a bogus result for complex numbers. |
| Since 4.2.0 | PHP stops to emit a warning if the value can't be computed, it will now silently return FALSE only. |
