I have variable like this with the type of string
:
$price = "65000"
Now I tried setting it’s type to integer
, so I tried these:
$finalprice = (int)$price; // returns 0 $finalprice = (intval)$price; // returns 0
So how to properly return the value 65000
as integer?

You wrong code, the first it’s correct and the second is intval($variable)
$price = "65000"; $finalprice1 = (int) $price; $finalprice2 = intval($price); var_dump($finalprice1); var_dump($finalprice2); /* int(65000) int(65000) */
I hope it’s just a typing error but in the variable you didn’t close with ;
Another method you can use is settype
like:
$price = "65000"; settype($price,'int'); var_dump($price); /* int(65000) */
