This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation
better.

"Returns an array of strings"

Description:
------------
You should note in your documentation that the MySQL and MySQLi
extensions all return strings, not the corresponding data types. E.g.,
if you pull out a column that is an integer column in MySQL, it will
still be represented as a string in PHP, not an integer. I think adding
this simple statement would help users a lot.

I will add this as a user note on one of the pages, but this should be
mentioned with the functions like mysqli_fetch_row, mysqli_fetch_assoc,
etc.
