Functions in PHP

Functions are reusable pieces of code that you can use throughout an application, saving you lots of copying and pasting.

PHP has lots of built-in functions, and we'll learn some of them in these exercises. The first set of functions we'll learn about are string manipulation functions.

strlen() is one of the most common String functions in PHP. You pass it a string, or variable containing a string, and it returns the number of characters in that string.

Code:

<html>
<p>
<?php
// get the length of a string and
// print it to the screen
?>
</p>
</html>

$str1 = "Eating cat is not good for rat";
echo strlen($str1);
