Mixed (Pherialize 1.2.4 API)

java.lang.Object
- de.ailis.pherialize.Mixed

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<Object>
```
public class Mixed
extends Object
implements Serializable, Comparable<Object>
```
A mixed data type. This data type is used to represent PHP values like string, int and double. It can be converted to any other Java type by using one of the to*() methods. Conversion errors results in returning a 0 because that's the same behaviour as in PHP.
