PHP is whitespace insensitive

PHP is whitespace insensitive: Whitespace is the stuff you type that is typically invisible on the screen, including spaces, tabs, and carriage returns (end-of-line characters). PHP whitespace insensitive means that it almost never matters how many whitespace characters you have in a row.one whitespace character is the same as many such characters


For example, each of the following PHP statements that assigns the sum of 2 + 2 to the variable $four is equivalent:
$four = 2 + 2; // single spaces
$four <tab>=<tab2<tab>+<tab>2 ; // spaces and tabs
$four =
 2+
2; // multiple lines
