Hello Jonathan,
Not sure on the exact numbers but consider :
print "hello, this has one $variable in it yet all is interpreted";
print 'hello, Concatenating is a ' . $another . ' way!';
not sure the exact performance increases but if done a million times it
should be noticable. i happen to be mildy anal on this and even seeing
stuff like this :
$var = "some words";
bothers me. some good basic information on this can be found here :
http://www.zend.com/zend/tut/using-strings.php
http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php
of course this all is preference and depends on the situation as doing
this :
$var = 'a ' . $b . ' c ' . $d . ' e ' . $f . ' g';
is downright silly.
