PHP Constants

The value of a constant variable is fixed and cannot be change during the execution. By default a constant variables are case-sensitive. Normally, constant identifiers are always written in uppercase.
In PHP, to define a constant variable use define() function and to retrieve the value of a constant variable simply specify constant variable name. Unlike with variables, you do not need to have to specify a '$' symbol. You can also use the function constant() to read a constant's value.

Example 1: Constant Variable with integer value. Example 2: Constant Variable with string value. Example 3: Constant Variable with case-insensitive variable name. Example 4: Constant Variables are Global.
