Replying to anonymous:
Sorry, I made a mistake:

ConsoleWrite($sTest == 0) ; False
ConsoleWrite($sTest = 0) ; True

There is no bug.

Using the == operator converts both sides to strings and "test" is obviously not the same as "0".

However, the = operator does not do this - both sides are treated as numbers and Number("test") = 0. So 0 = 0 is true.
