Hi !
If you don't have the GMP extension, the sign function is really simple to code.
Here an example of implementation :
<?php
function sign( $number ) {
return ( $number > 0 ) ? 1 : ( ( $number < 0 ) ? -1 : 0 );
}
echo sign( 500 ); // Return 1
echo sign( -500 ); // Return -1
echo sign( 0 ); // Return 0
?>

gmp_sign
(PHP 4 >= 4.0.4, PHP 5, PHP 7)
gmp_sign — Sign of number
반환값
Returns 1 if a is positive,
-1 if a is negative,
and 0 if a is zero.

For conciseness or golfing ;)
$s=$n<0|-($n>0)
where $s sign is 1 if positive, -1 if negative, otherwise -0 or +0 which is still 0

Another way for those without GMP:
<?php
function sign($number) {
return $number / abs($number ?: 1);
}
?>
