Last update on December 20 2024 10:19:33 (UTC/GMT +8 hours)

Write a PHP script to convert the value of a PHP variable to string.

Visual Presentation:

Sample Solution:

PHP Code:

<?php
$x =  20;            // Assigns the integer value 20 to the variable $x
$str1 = (string)$x;  // Converts the integer $x to a string and assigns it to $str1
// Check whether $x and $str1 are equal or not
if ($x === $str1)    // Compares $x and $str1 for both value and type
{
  echo "They are the same"."\n"; // Prints if $x and $str1 are identical
}
else
{
  echo "They are not same"."\n"; // Prints if $x and $str1 are not identical
}
?>

Output:

They are not same

Explanation:

In the above PHP code, '$x' is an integer with a value of 20, which is then converted to a string and stored in '$str1'. The code then compares '$x' and '$str1' to see if they are identical in both value and type. If they are identical, it prints "They are the same"; otherwise, it prints "They are not same".
