<title>When querying boolean values</title>
<para>
A boolean ini value of <literal>off</literal> will be returned as an
empty string or "0" while a boolean ini value of <literal>on</literal> will
be returned as "1".
The function can also return the literal string of INI value.
</para>
</note>
<note>
<title>When querying memory size values</title>
<para>
Many ini memory size values, such as
<link linkend="ini.upload-max-filesize">upload_max_filesize</link>, are
stored in the &php.ini; file in shorthand notation.
<function>ini_get</function> will return the exact string stored in the
&php.ini; file and <emphasis>NOT</emphasis> its <type>integer</type>
equivalent. Attempting normal arithmetic functions on these values
will not have otherwise expected results. The example above shows one
way to convert shorthand notation into bytes, much like how the PHP
source does it.
