diference between return , echo and print keyword in PHP

php

Solution

`return` is a language construct used to exit a function and give a value to the caller of the function.

`echo` and `print` are both language constructs that output strings. The main difference is that echo can take multiple arguments separated by commas, but print accepts only a single argument.

Problem

What is the difference between these three? return , echo and print keyword in PHP ``` function theBand($abc,$bac) { return $abc; echo $abc; } ``` Both does the same, it does show or return me the value holding in the variable abc. Now return exists the function and echo continues. Apart from this is there anything specific on return keyword.
