Spaceship Operator in PHP 5 and 7

[ankitdixit]

Hello All, I want to know which PHP version quipped to spaceship operator between php5 and php7. As I am working on php5, PHP5 does not have a spaceship operator. A lot of operators have to be used for comparisons. I have checked on google and according to this source, PHP7 is quipped with a new operator popularly referred to as spaceship operator which has a notation <=> Function can automatically return to null when the value is not accessible. Can anyone tell me, Is PHP7 is better than phph5 in terms of spaceship operator?

Yes, because PHP 5 doesn't have that operator.

PHP 5, the predecessor to the current version, had a fatal error. PHP 7, the current version, has a similar fatal error, but handles them differently. In PHP 7, a fatal error is raised when a program tries to access a memory location that does not exist. In PHP 5, a fatal error is raised when a program tries to access a string that is longer than 256 characters.
