Hi !
If you don't have the GMP extension, the sign function is really simple to code.
Here an example of implementation :

Thomas.

Using a spaceship in PHP7:

Just
$sign = ($a==0 ?0 :$a/abs($a));

For conciseness or golfing ;)
$s=$n0)
where $s sign is 1 if positive, -1 if negative, otherwise -0 or +0 which is still 0

You can also do this:

Another way for those without GMP:

May be it's bug :
   gmp_sign(1) returns 'false'
