Video of PHP Data Types - Typecasting Overview & How It Works - Full PHP 8 Tutorial in PHP Native course by Program With Gio channel, video No. 5 free certified online
Let's review the data types in PHP & typecasting. PHP does some magic when it comes to handling various data types. It's called type juggling. There will be individual videos for each of the types because I want to go into more detail & discuss some of the important things that otherwise would make this video too long. These small details are very important in my opinion because they will help you understand how things work in PHP what some may call "magic" when it comes to data types & casting.
