title: Response from API in PHP converted into a float number, need whole number
body: <p>I am calling an external API and successfully get the result. However, one particular field that results in a numerical value is getting changed into a float number.</p>
  
  <p>After the API call, this is how I am proceeding:</p>
  
  <pre><code>print_r($response);
  
  // Decode the response
  $responseData = json_decode($response, TRUE);
  
  $ids=  $responseData[0][id];
  echo $ids;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The result I get is as follows:</p>
  
  <pre><code>[{"id":629378047925027252,"name":"Pizza Hut"}]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But for the particular <code>id</code> part the result is <code>6.2937804792503E+17</code>.</p>
  
  <p>I want to retrieve the value as it is shown in the response <code>id</code> above.</p>
