| bcmod | dividend and divisor are no longer truncated to integer, so now the behavior of bcmod follows fmod rather than the % operator. | |
| bcmod | The scale parameter was added. | |
| count | count will now yield a warning on invalid countable types passed to the array_or_countable parameter. | |
