What is echo & Print in PHP? | PHP echo and print Statements

PHP echo and print Statements

There are two basic ways to get output: 

• echo 
• print

PHP echo and print Statements echo and print are more or less the same. They are both used to output data to the screen. 

The differences are small: 

• echo has no return value while print has a return value of 1 so it can be used in expressions. echo can take multiple parameters (although such usage is rare) while print can take one argument. 

• echo is marginally faster than print. 

• The PHP echo Statement The echo statement can be used with or without parentheses: echo or echo().
