Old Summary: pow(0,[broken power]) gives wrong result
Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Status: Open
Bug Type: Math related
Operating System: Linux (Debian 2.2)
PHP Version: 4.1.1
New Comment:
pow() returns incorrect results when raising zero to a "broken power".
Example:
pow(0,0.5) ("the square root of zero") returns NAN. It should return
zero.
This was introduced sometime after 4.0.6. Perhaps it is related to the
fix for bug #14544.

The pow() function returns incorrect results when raising zero to a
"broken power".
pow(0,0.5) ("the square root of zero"), for example, returns NAN. It
should return zero.
This, is new since 4.0.6. Perhaps it is related to the fix for bug
#14544.
