Using Concatenation Operator

Now we are talking about Concatenation.
Concatenation operator (.) [dot] is use to put two string value together.
To concatenate two string value together, use the concatenation operator.

++++++++++++++++++
<?php
$string1="Hello";
$string2="Welcome to Mint PHP !";
echo $string1. " " .$string2;
?>
++++++++++++++++++

Output:
___________

Hello Welcome to Mint PHP !

______________

There is another method, without using the .= operator by this we can join different variable into another variable.
Example:
++++++++++++++++

<?php
$string1="Hello,";
$string2="World!";
$string3=$string1 . $string2;
$string4=$string1 . ' and welcome to Mint PHP Blog ' .$string2;

echo $string3.' ' .$string4;

?>

++++++++++++++
Output:
_______

Hello,World! Hello, and welcome to Mint PHP Blog World!

Outputting A String

Thank you for reading my Blog.
We have done in previous lesson use PHP " echo " .we can also use the "ptint" function as like as C programming.
You can place either a string variable or you can use quotes,like i do below, to create a string that the echo/print function will output.

**************************************
<body>
<?php
$myString="Hello ! Welcome to Mint PHP ";
echo $myString."<br/>";
echo 'I love PHP :)'."<br/>";
print "You can also use print as like as \"echo\".";
?>
