PHP - Variables and Data Types

$a = '10 apples';
$b = 10;
var_dump($a == $b);

Abool(true)

Bstring('10 apples')

Cint(10)

Dbool(false)

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand comparison with == operator
Using == triggers type juggling, so PHP converts the string to a number.
Step 2: Convert string to number and compare
'10 apples' converts to 10, so 10 == 10 is true.
Final Answer:
bool(true) -> Option A
Quick Check:
'10 apples' == 10 is true due to type juggling [OK]

Quick Trick: == converts strings to numbers if possible [OK]
