PHP Exercises : Get PHP version and configuration information
1. PHP Version and Config Info
Write a PHP script to get the PHP version and configuration information.
Sample Solution:
PHP Code:
<?php
// Display information about the PHP configuration and settings
phpinfo();
?>
Note: phpinfo() outputs a large amount of information about the current state of PHP. This includes information about PHP compilation options and extensions, the PHP version, server information and environment, the PHP environment, OS version information, paths, master and local values of configuration options, HTTP headers, and the PHP License.
Sample Output:
phpinfo()
PHP Version => 5.6.11-1ubuntu3.4
System => Linux server 4.4.0-47-generic #68-Ubuntu SMP Wed O
