Include Once Statement in PHP
What is Include Once statement?
Explanation
include_once() function checks the file after execution of the file and also for the similarity in coding, if the coding is already included, it will not include the file.
Example :
b.php
<?php
echo "bbbb";
?>
TestCode.php
<?php
include 'b.php';
include_once "b.php";
?>
Result :
bbbb
In the above example the "include_once" statement will not include the file "b.php", since it already included and the code is similar for both the files.
