Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.base-convert
---
PHP Version : PHP 7.2.10 (cli) (built: Sep 11 2018 10:09:51) ( NTS )

when I using base_convert to make a order id for my system, I found it restore my data isn't correct, is it a bug ?


origin_data always not equal recovery_data

Test script:
---------------
$a = '10010'.sprintf('%02d',mt_rand(0,99)).str_pad(str_replace('.', '', microtime(TRUE)), 14, 0, STR_PAD_RIGHT);
echo 'origin_data : '.$a;
echo '<br>';
$b = base_convert($a, 10,36);
echo 'convert_data : '.$b;
echo '<br>';
echo 'recovery_data : '.base_convert($b, 36,10);

Expected result:
----------------
origin_data : 100106615369813329847
convert_data : l4k9ti8ikb4cg
recovery_data : 100106615369813329847

Actual result:
--------------
origin_data : 100106615369813329847
convert_data : l4k9ti8ikb4cg
recovery_data : 100106615369813328882

You're trying to generate a unique identifier. There are better methods.
