In php echo and print both are used for showing output on the user screen.
Here we are going to discuss some differences between both statements.
1. <?php
echo "hello world";
// or
echo("hello world");
?>
Output: hello world
2. <?php
$a = "Hi ";
$b = "this is ";
$c = "Ap here";
echo $a,$b,$c;
?>
Output: Hi this is Ap here.
3. <?php
$a = "Raj";
$name = echo $a; ?>
Output: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ECHO
1. <?php
print "hello world";
// or
print("hello world");
?>
Output: hello world
2. <?php
$a = "Hi ";
$b = "this is ";
$c = "Ap here";
print $a,$b,$c;
?>
Output: Parse error: syntax error
3. <?php
$a = "Raj";
$name = print $a;
echo $name;
?>
Output: Raj
Here we are going to discuss some differences between both statements.
1. echo Statement
- we can write echo statement with parenthesis like 'echo()' or without parenthesis 'echo'.
- in the echo we can pass multiple variable in comma separated form to see the output like 'echo $a,$b,$c;'
- echo doesn’t return any value
- echo is faster then print
1. <?php
echo "hello world";
// or
echo("hello world");
?>
Output: hello world
2. <?php
$a = "Hi ";
$b = "this is ";
$c = "Ap here";
echo $a,$b,$c;
?>
Output: Hi this is Ap here.
3. <?php
$a = "Raj";
$name = echo $a; ?>
Output: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ECHO
2. Print Statement
- we can write print statement with parenthesis like 'print()' or without parenthesis 'print'.
- in the print we can not pass multiple variable in comma separated form like echo.
- print statement always returns 1.
- print is slower than echo
1. <?php
print "hello world";
// or
print("hello world");
?>
Output: hello world
2. <?php
$a = "Hi ";
$b = "this is ";
$c = "Ap here";
print $a,$b,$c;
?>
Output: Parse error: syntax error
3. <?php
$a = "Raj";
$name = print $a;
echo $name;
?>
Output: Raj
