 Wie bei allen arithmetischen Variantfunktionen, können die Parameter dieser
 Funktion entweder native PHP-Typen (Integer, String, Fließkomma, Boolean
 oder <strong><code><a href="reserved.constants.php#constant.null">null</a></code></strong>) oder Instanzen einer COM-, VARIANT- oder DOTNET-Klasse sein.
 Native PHP-Typen werden nach den gleichen Regeln in Varianten umgewandelt
 wie auch im Konstruktor der <a href="class.variant.php" class="xref">variant</a>-Klasse.
 Für COM- und DOTNET-Objekte wird der Wert ihrer Standardeigenschaft
 genommen und als Variantenwert genutzt.
</p>
<p class="para">
 Die arithmetischen Variantenfunktionen sind Wrapper für die ähnlich
 benannten Funktionen der COM-Bibliothek, weiterführende Informationen
 hierzu finden sie in der MSDN-Bibliothek. Die PHP-Funktionen sind leicht
 abweichend benannt, so korrespondiert <span class="function"><strong>variant_add()</strong></span>
 in PHP zu VarAdd() in der MSDN-Dokumentation.
