Bug description:Description of what happens if you pass a number

Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.ctype-alnum
---
There should be the following warning in the docs:

If you are passing in a number, ctype_alnum will return false for all
numbers that do not represent alphanumeric character codes (see chr). 

Test script:
---------------
<?php
$myVar = 10;
echo ctype_alnum($myVar) ? "T" : "F"; // returns F
$myVar = 48;
echo ctype_alnum($myVar) ? "T" : "F"; // returns T, because ASCII 48 = "a"
$myVar = "10";
echo ctype_alnum($myVar) ? "T" : "F"; // returns T
