echo and print Statements in PhP

In PhP there are two basic ways to get output: echo and print.

echo

  • echo is a statement i.e used to display the output. it can be used with parentheses echo or without parentheses echo.
  • echo can pass multiple string separated as ( , )
  • echo doesn’t return any value
  • echo is faster then print

Example

<?php
echo "<h2>PHP is Fun!</h2>";
echo "Hello world!<br>";
echo "I'm about to learn PHP!<br>";
echo "This ", "string ", "was ", "made ", "with multiple parameters.";
?>

Output

PHP is Fun!

Hello world!
I’m about to learn PHP!
This string was made with multiple parameters.

print

  • Print is also a statement i.e used to display the output. it can be used with parentheses print( ) or without parentheses print.
  • using print can doesn’t pass multiple argument.
  • print always return 1
  • it is slower than echo

Example

<?php
print "<h2>PHP is Fun!</h2>";
print "Hello world!<br>";
print "I'm about to learn PHP!";
?>

Output

PHP is Fun!
Hello world!
I’m about to learn PHP!
