You want to filter an array to keep only elements that are exactly integer 0, excluding string '0'. Which comparison operator should you use in PHP?
A==
B!==
C!=
D===
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Understand filtering requirement

    We want to keep only elements that are integer 0, not string '0'. So type matters.
  2. Step 2: Choose operator that checks type and value

    Strict equality (===) checks both value and type, so it excludes string '0'.
  3. Final Answer:

    === -> Option D
  4. Quick Check:

    Strict equality === filters exact type and value [OK]
Quick Trick: Use === to match exact type and value [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Using == which allows type conversion
  • Using != or !== which exclude 0
  • Ignoring type difference in filtering
