End of Statement (Perl and PHP Cross Reference Guide)

By Mike Prestwood

Perl versus PHP: A side by side comparison between Perl and PHP.

Language Basics

Language basics is kind of a catch all for absolute beginner stuff. The items (common names) I chose for language basics is a bit random and include items like case sensitivity, commenting, declaring variables, etc.

End of Statement

[Other Languages]

Languages Focus

In coding languages, common End of statement specifiers include a semicolon and return (others exist too). Also of concern when studying a language is can you put two statements on a single code line and can you break a single statement into two or more code lines.

Perl: ;

Syntax Example:

print "Hello";

PHP: ;

Syntax Example:

echo "Hello";
