The strval function converts a variable into a string type. It can convert variables of types such as integers, floating points, booleans, and others into strings. For example:<\/p>\n

$var<\/span> = 123<\/span>;\r\n$str<\/span> = strval<\/span>($var<\/span>);\r\necho<\/span> $str<\/span>; \/\/ \u8f93\u51fa\uff1a'123'<\/span>\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
Note: The strval function can only convert scalar variables; if an array or object is passed in, it will return an empty string.<\/p>\n
