But AISB, the implementation is contradicting the documentation (or vice-
versa) because the a string argument containing the binary format causes
is_numeric() to return FALSE in PHP 5.4.4 and PHP 5.4.14 (when according to
the above it should have returned TRUE). It is not possible to determine by
testing whether the octal format is considered numeric because of itself or
because it is considered decimal. Incidentally, you have neglected to test
those two formats.
