print

Name

print — Sends a value to stdout.

Synopsis

int print(value); mixed value: Value to send to stdout

Returns

1 on success; nothing on failure

Description

print() is a language construct that converts a value to a string and sends it to standard output. Standard output is usually a browser or command interpreter (aka shell/DOS window).

Placing parentheses () around the argument to print() is optional; for example, print "Hi!"; works quite nicely without.

<?php
print "Hello Joe!\n";
print('What is your favorite color?'."\n");
print 200;
print("\n" . sqrt(100));
?>

Output:
Hello Joe!
What is your favorite color?
200
10
