print

Description

Outputs arg. Returns 1, always.

print() is not actually a real function (it is a language construct) so you are not required to use parentheses with its argument list.

Przykład 1. print() examples <?php print("Hello World"); print "print() also works without parentheses."; print "This spans multiple lines. The newlines will be output as well"; print "This spans\nmultiple lines. The newlines will be\noutput as well."; print "escaping characters is done \"Like this\"."; // You can use variables inside of a print statement $foo = "foobar"; $bar = "barbaz"; print "foo is $foo"; // foo is foobar // You can also use arrays $bar = array("value" => "foo"); print "this is {$bar['value']} !"; // this is foo ! // Using single quotes will print the variable name, not the value print 'foo is $foo'; // foo is $foo // If you are not using any other characters, you can just print variables print $foo;          // foobar print <<<END This uses the "here document" syntax to output multiple lines with $variable interpolation. Note that the here document terminator must appear on a line with just a semicolon no extra whitespace! END; ?>
