Description:
------------
The ctype documentation (http://www.php.net/ctype) states that: "If the
number is between -128 (inclusive) and 0 then 256 will be added and the
check will be done on that."

First of all (inclusive) shouldn't be in parentheses because they
should only contain superfluous information, which isn't the case here,
furthermore it's unlclear at first, at least to me, whether "inclusive"
applies for the whole range or just the start of it as is the case.

The documentation should be changed to:

"If the number is between -128 and -1 inclusive then 256 will be added
and the check will be done on that."

Which is less confusing and doesn't place essential information in
parentheses.
