Better performance in speed!

A remarkable effort was made by the programming world to remodel the core of this programming language in order to reduce memory consumption and increase performance. And of course they achieve it! As an be seen from the following results, php7 displays twice as fast speeds as these php 5.6 and sometimes even faster.

Greater security and reliability in CSPRNG

CSPRNG is the abbreviation of Cryptographically Secure PseudoRandom Number Generator in PHP and is a basic way and even more secure to generate random data on php. The random number selection is used for secure code generation and system security.

New operators

The spaceship operator or the combined comparison operator is a new and very interesting feature offered by php7!

$compare = 2 <=> 1
2 < 1? return -1
2 = 1? return 0
2 > 1? return 1

In fact, what it does is control each operator individually. First check if the value on the left is lower than the value on the right and returns -1. If it is not proceeding by checking the equality of the two values. If it is equal it will return 0, otherwise the check goes to the last check and returns 1 if the value on the left is greater than the value on the right.

Remember that you can change the version of php you ise through the cPanel platform using PHP Selector application as shown below. The default version currently in use is php 5.6, put you can always choose php7 or any other version you like.
