How to execute PHP Script in Website using XAMPP webserver ?

After successful installation, the steps we should follow are-

  • Open XAMPP control panel, if you want to link database to your code then start MySQL otherwise you will need to start Filezilla and Apache

Xampp starts

  • Then open Notepad/Notepad++ or any text editor to write PHP program.

PHP




<?php 
  
// Declare the variable
$x = 20;  
$y = 10;  
  
// Evaluate arithmetic operations
$z = $x + $y; 
$m = $x - $y;
$p = $x * $y; 
$a = $x / $y;
  
// Addition
echo "Sum: ", $z; // Sum: 30
  
// Subtraction
echo "Diff: ", $m; // Diff: 10
  
// Multiplication
