# bccomp

(PHP 3, PHP 4 )

bccomp -- Compare two arbitrary precision numbers

## Description

int bccomp ( string left_operand, string right_operand [, int scale])

Compares the `left_operand` to the `right_operand` and returns the result as an integer. The optional `scale` parameter is used to set the number of digits after the decimal place which will be used in the comparison. The return value is 0 if the two operands are equal. If the `left_operand` is larger than the `right_operand` the return value is +1 and if the `left_operand` is less than the `right_operand` the return value is -1.
