                                    bccomp

   (PHP 3, PHP 4 )
   bccomp -- Compare two arbitrary precision numbers

Description

   int bccomp ( string left_operand, string right_operand [, int scale])

   Compares the left_operand to the right_operand and returns the result
   as an integer. The optional scale parameter is used to set the number
   of digits after the decimal place which will be used in the
   comparison. The return value is 0 if the two operands are equal. If
   the left_operand is larger than the right_operand the return value is
   +1 and if the left_operand is less than the right_operand the return
   value is -1.

   Example 1. bccomp() example
   <?php
   echo bccomp('1', '2') . "\n";
   echo bccomp('1.00001', '1', 3) . "\n";
   echo bccomp('1.00001', '1', 5);
   ?>

   The above example will output:
-1
0
1
