http://uk.php.net/manual/en/language.types.type-juggling.php

Contains these examples:

  $foo = 5 + "10 Little Piggies"; // $foo is integer (15)
  $foo = 5 + "10 Small Pigs";     // $foo is integer (15)

What's the point in two practically identical examples next to each other?  How about making the second one:

  $foo = 5 + "10.2 Small Pigs";  // $foo is float (15.2)
