In PHP, there are several methods available to return data to the frontend.

  1. Use the echo statement to output data: By using the echo statement, you can directly output data to the frontend page. For example:
echo "Hello, World!";
  1. You can use the print statement to output data. It is similar to the echo statement and can also be used to display data on the front-end page. For example:
print "Hello, World!";
  1. To return data using the ‘return’ statement: If you want to send data back to the frontend page as the function’s return value, you can use the ‘return’ statement. For example:
function getData() {
    // 数据处理代码
    return "Hello, World!";
}
  1. Return data in JSON format: To send back complex data structures, you can convert the data to JSON format and then output it to the front-end page using an echo statement. For example:
$data = array(
    'name' => 'John',
    'age' => 25,
    'email' => 'john@example.com'
);

echo json_encode($data);

The above are several common methods that can be chosen based on specific situations to return data to the frontend page.
