   <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.

  <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.
