PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. It is modular, with
some object-oriented features. Much of its syntax is borrowed from
C, Java and Perl with a couple of unique PHP-specific features
thrown in. The language is designed to allow web developers to
write dynamically generated pages quickly.
This package provides PHP version 7.0.x.
PHP 7.0.0 comes with a new version of the Zend Engine, numerous improvements
and new features such as
* Improved performance: PHP 7 is up to twice as fast as PHP 5.6
* Significantly reduced memory usage
* Abstract Syntax Tree
* Consistent 64-bit support
* Improved Exception hierarchy
* Many fatal errors converted to Exceptions
* Secure random number generator
* Removed old and unsupported SAPIs and extensions
* The null coalescing operator (??)
* Return and Scalar Type Declarations
* Anonymous Classes
* Zero cost asserts
NOTE: This version is on security support only, with planned End of Live
on December 3 2018. Update to PHP 7.1.x or 7.2.x is recommended.
