@NogDogJun 05.2015 — #An unquoted number with a leading zero will be read as an octal number. Since 8 is not a valid digit in base 8 (0-7 are), it ignores the 8, and 0556 in octal converts to 366 in decimal, and since the octal value was stored as an integer, when PHP casts it to a string during the echo, it assumes a decimal representation.

I am new to PHP and was wondering what I’m doing wrong. I set a variable to “05568” and the output is “366” What am I doing wrong?
[CODE]
<?php
$name = ‘Jonh Rivers’;
//echo $name;
$address = “</br>” . ‘33417 Jones st.’;
//echo “</br>” . $address;
$city = “</br>” . ‘Johnson’;
$state = ‘ UT ‘;
$zipC = 05568;
$message = $name . $address . $city . $state . $zipC;
//$message .= $address;
echo $message;
?>
This is what it outputs:
Jonh Rivers
33417 Jones st.
Johnson UT 366
