"""
A few rough Python equivalents of PHP internal functions (=lazy port).
NOTE:
1) PHP "array" object is mostly similar to a Python "dictionary", but some
times a "list" (or "array": see Protection.py) may be required!
2) PHP "isset()" tests often wether an array has given key, or a variable
is defined in global/local space;
3) PHP string functions have often different return values from Python (see below);
4) "for (x; a <[=]b; y)" loops become "for i in range(a,b[+1]):" in Python;
5) PHP emits automatically floats quotients when needed, Python don't: so add a
".0" to divisors when PDF expects decimal numbers.
Actually, all FPDF tutorials (even from ported modules) work fine, but bugs
or incompatibilities might be hidden somewhere: so, USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!
