# XML::LibXML::Number - phpMan

## NAME
    [XML::LibXML::Number] - Simple numeric values.

## DESCRIPTION
    This class holds simple numeric values. It doesn't support -0, +/-
    Infinity, or NaN, as the XPath spec says it should, but I'm not hurting
    anyone I don't think.

## API
  new($num)
    Creates a new [XML::LibXML::Number] object, with the value in $num. Does
    some rudimentary numeric checking on $num to ensure it actually is a
    number.

  value()
    Also as overloaded stringification. Returns the numeric value held.
