Welcome to the PHP 7 tutorial! In this tutorial, we will cover everything you need to know about PHP 7.
PHP 7 is the latest major release of the PHP programming language. It was released on December 3, 2015 and is considered a significant improvement over previous versions.
PHP 7 comes with a number of new features and improvements, including:
Improved performance: PHP 7 is significantly faster than previous versions of PHP, which means your web applications will run faster.
Scalar type declarations: PHP 7 introduces scalar type declarations, which allow you to specify the type of a function's parameters and return value (e.g. int, string, bool).
Return type declarations: PHP 7 also introduces return type declarations, which allow you to specify the type of a function's return value.
Null coalescing operator: PHP 7 introduces the null coalescing operator (??), which allows you to check if a variable is set and not null, and if it's not, return a default value.
Spaceship operator: PHP 7 introduces the spaceship operator (<=>), which allows you to compare two values and return -1, 0, or 1 depending on whether the left value is less than, equal to, or greater than the right value.
Group use declarations: PHP 7 allows you to group multiple use declarations on the same line, which can make your code easier to read.
To get started with PHP 7, you'll need to download and install it on your computer. You can download PHP 7 from the official PHP website (https://www.php.net/downloads.php).
Once you've installed PHP 7, you'll need to choose a text editor or IDE to write your PHP code. Some popular options include:
To write your first PHP 7 program, create a new file with the .php extension (e.g. myprogram.php) and add the following code:
<?php
echo "Hello, world!";
?>
Save the file and open it in your web browser. You should see the message "Hello, world!" displayed on the screen.
