PHP Operators: The === Operator
PHP’s === Operator enables you to compare or test variables for both equality and type. Refer below for example.
<?php //define variables.. $str = '9'; $int = 9; //Returns true since both variable contains the same value.. $res = ($str==$int); //Returns false since the two variables are not of the same type.. $res = ($str===$int); ?>

That’s actualy a pretty useful operator. You’d think that there’s not much you can do with that but in reality it has so many uses you wouldn’t belive it…

Thanks for pointing out the === operator. At first I thought you had a typo!
But, I see many uses for this! Keep up the good work with your tips and advice!

Really nice presentation of operator ===.
I don’t know yet the enviroment of PHP but know some basic programming also like C.
Good Luck. Hopefully you could update your blog regularly.

I usually use the double equal sign == to test equality and never used this triple equal. Maybe because there’s no situation that requires it but thank you for pointing this one.

I always get lost when it comes to those “=” “==” “===” operators. Had no idea there even was a “===” one.
