PHP is a scripting language used to create dynamic and interactive web pages, and is a free and efficient alternative to Microsoft ASP. Constants in PHP are identifiers for simple values that cannot change during script execution, and are automatically global. Constants are defined using the define() function, which specifies the name, value, and optionally whether the name is case-sensitive.

PHP Constants
A constant is an identifier (name) for a simple value. The value cannot be
changed during the script.

A valid constant name starts with a letter or underscore (no $ sign before the
constant name).

Note: Unlike variables, constants are automatically global across the entire
script.

Create a PHP Constant


To create a constant, use the define() function.

Syntax

Parameters:

name: Specifies the name of the constant


value: Specifies the value of the constant
case-insensitive: Specifies whether the constant name should be case-
