(PHP 4, PHP 5)
echo — 输出一个或多个字符串
$arg1
[, string $...
] )输出所有参数。
echo() 不是一个函数（它是一个语言结构）， 因此你不一定要使用小括号来指明参数，单引号，双引号都可以。 echo() （不像其他语言构造）不表现得像一个函数， 所以不能总是使用一个函数的上下文。 另外，如果你想给echo() 传递多个参数， 那么就不能使用小括号。
echo() 也有一个快捷用法，示例如下。但是你必须在php.ini 里面打开short_open_tag
I have <?=$foo?> foo.
arg1
要输出的参数
...
没有返回值。
Example #1 echo() examples
<?php
echo "Hello World";
echo "This spans
multiple lines. The newlines will be
output as well";
echo "This spans\nmultiple lines. The newlines will be\noutput as well.";
echo "Escaping characters is done \"Like this\".";
// You can use variables inside of an echo statement
$foo = "foobar";
$bar = "barbaz";
echo "foo is $foo"; // foo is foobar
// You can also use arrays
$baz = array("value" => "foo");
echo "this is {$baz['value']} !"; // this is foo !
// Using single quotes will print the variable name, not the value
echo 'foo is $foo'; // foo is $foo
// If you are not using any other characters, you can just echo variables
echo $foo; // foobar
echo $foo,$bar; // foobarbarbaz
// Some people prefer passing multiple parameters to echo over concatenation.
echo 'This ', 'string ', 'was ', 'made ', 'with multiple parameters.', chr(10);
echo 'This ' . 'string ' . 'was ' . 'made ' . 'with concatenation.' . "\n";
echo <<<END
This uses the "here document" syntax to output
multiple lines with $variable interpolation. Note
that the here document terminator must appear on a
line with just a semicolon. no extra whitespace!
END;
// Because echo does not behave like a function, the following code is invalid.
($some_var) ? echo 'true' : echo 'false';
// However, the following examples will work:
($some_var) ? print 'true' : print 'false'; // print is also a construct, but
// it behaves like a function, so
// it may be used in this context.
echo $some_var ? 'true': 'false'; // changing the statement around
?>
Note: 因为是一个语言构造器而不是一个函数，不能被 可变函数 调用。
