Laravel - Basics and Architecture

You want to create a new Laravel route that returns the current year dynamically. Which code snippet correctly does this in routes/web.php?

ARoute::get('/year', function () { return date('Y'); });

BRoute::get('/year', function () { echo "date('Y')"; });

CRoute::get('/year', function () { return "Year is date('Y')"; });

DRoute::get('/year', function () { return date(d); });

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Use PHP date function correctly
The date('Y') function returns the current year as a string.
Step 2: Return the year string properly in the route
Using return date('Y'); inside the route's closure sends the year as response.
Step 3: Identify errors in other options
The echo option outputs literal "date('Y')"; another returns literal "Year is date('Y')"; the last uses date(d) without quotes, returning the day of the month instead of the year.
Final Answer:
Route::get('/year', function () { return date('Y'); }); -> Option A
Quick Check:
Return date('Y') for current year [OK]

Quick Trick: Use return with date('Y') inside route function [OK]
