<?php
// intialize variables
$username = "daniel";
$domain = "danieldumas.com";

// the variable string $username and $domain can be combine using the concatenation operator
$email_address = $username . '@'. $domain;

//the variable $email_address now contains the value "daniel@danieldumas.com"

?>

You can also concatenate simultaneously. .

<?php

$name = "dan";

//add and assign values to the string $name..

$name .= "iel";

//the variable $name now contains "daniel"

?>
