I am having a problem in php switch case.

When i set $number=0 it should run very first case but here this code returns 10-20K that is in second case.

I checked comparison operators, tested them in if else case they return correct values but here first case do not run on $number=0

Why is this happening ? php consider 0 as false or something wrong in code ?

also here is the code

<?php

$number = 0;

    switch ($number) {
     case ($number <= 10000):
            echo "0-10K";
           break;
        case ($number > 10000 && $number <= 20000):
            echo "10-20K";
            break;
        case ($number > 20000 && $number <= 30000):
            echo "20-30K";
            break;
        case ($number > 30000 && $number <= 40000):
            echo "30-40K";
            break;
        case ($number > 40000 && $number <= 50000):
            echo "40-50K";
            break;
        case ($number > 50000 && $number <= 60000):
            echo "50-60K";
            break;
        case ($number > 60000 && $number <= 70000):
            echo "60-70K";
            break;
        case ($number > 70000 && $number <= 80000):
            echo "70-80K";
            break;
        case ($number > 80000 && $number <= 90000):
            echo "80-90K";
            break;
        case ($number > 90000):
            echo "90K+";
            break;

        default: //default
            echo "N/A";
            break;
}
