If you want to use default "1" in this keys, you should write `Get::int('p', 1);` - use the same interface for different SuperGlobals: `$_GET`, `$_POST`, `$_SESSION`, `$_COOKIE` (use `Get::get('foo');` for $\_GET\['foo'\], or `Cookie::get('foo');` for $\_COOKIE\['foo'\]) We have such a methods: - **get(string $key, string $default = '')** : string - Returns the value of the `preset` key, or the `preset` default value. - **int(string $key, int $default = 0)** : int - Returns the value of the `preset` key, if it is integer or the `preset` default value. - **float(string $key, float $default = 0)** : float - Returns the value of the `preset` key, if it is float or the `preset` default value. - **array(string $key, array $default = array())** : array - Returns the value of the `preset` key, if it is an array or the `preset` default value. - **ident(string $key, string $default = '')** : string - Returns the value of the `preset` key, if it contains only this: a-zA-Z0-9\_- symbols, or the `preset` default value. - **isDefined(string $key)** : bool - Returns `TRUE` if the the the `preset` key is defined, or `FALSE` if it is not. - **isNull(string $key)** : bool - Returns `TRUE` if the value of the the `preset` key is not set, or `FALSE` otherwise. - **isNotSet(string $key)** : bool - Returns `FALSE` if the value of the the `preset` key is not set, or `TRUE` otherwise. - **is1(string $key)** : bool - Returns `TRUE` only if value of the $key == 1; - **isEmpty(string $key, bool $ifNotSet = false)** : bool - Returns `TRUE` if value of the $key == ''
