Question: I want to combine two variables together:

Answer:

 $var1 = 'Welcome to '; $var2 = 'TechInterviews.com';

What will work faster? Code sample 1: -
$var 3 = $var1.$var2;
Or code sample 2:
$var3 = "$var1$var2";
Both examples would provide the same result - $var3 equal to "Welcome to TechInterviews.com". However, Code Sample 1 will work significantly faster. Try it out with large sets of data (or via concatenating small sets a million times or so), and you will see that concatenation works significantly faster than variable substitution.

Is it helpful? Yes No
