PHP allows to work with following data types : 
                           
                         1. String 
                           
2. Integer 
  
                         3. Float (floating point numbers - also called double) 
                           
4. Boolean 
  
                         5 .Array 
                           
6. Object 
  
                         7 .NULL 
                           
8. Resource 
                               <?php
$txt = "Hi Hello world!"; 
$x = 5; 
$y = 10.5;
?>
                               
                               Difference Between ‘ ’ and “ ”
                              <?php 
 $variable = "name"; 
 $novariable = 'My $variable will not print!';
print($novariable); 
 print "<br>"; 
 
 $novariable = "My $variable will print!"; 
 print($novariable); 
?>
                              
                              
Scope of Variable - Global - Without keyword
                                <?php
$a = 5;
function myFunction() { 
 echo "<p>Variable a inside function is: $a</p>"; 
}
myFunction();
echo "<p>Variable a outside function is: $a</p>";
?>
Scope of Variable - Global - With keyword
                                <?php
$x = 5; 
$y = 10;
function myFunction() { 
global $x, $y; 
$y = $x + $y; 
}
myFunction(); 
echo $y; 
?>
Using Global keyword with Array
                                <?php
$x = 5; 
$y = 10;
function myFunction() { 
$GLOBALS['y'] = $GLOBALS['x'] + $GLOBALS['y']; 
}
myFunction(); 
echo $y; 
?>
