Return Value	<?php $myname = True; $myname ? print "Brian" : print "false"; ?> I set $myname as True Initially , and if $myname is true print “Brian”	you can’t do that with Echo it does not have a return value 1 or 0

" .$txt3 ; ?> you can only take one parameter at a time	<?php $txt1 = "I"; $txt2 = "am"; $txt3 = "Brian"; echo "$txt1 ", "$txt2", "$txt3" ; ?> Or you can choose to remove the Variable just write : I am Brian “
