In PHP, to find the maximum of two numbers, you can use the built-in function max(). Similarly, to find out the minimum of two numbers, you can use the built-in function min().
Here is an example code snippet to demonstrate how we can find the maximum and minimum of two numbers:
$num1 = 20;
$num2 = 10;
// finding the maximum of two numbers using max()
$max = max($num1, $num2);
// finding the minimum of two numbers using min()
$min = min($num1, $num2);
// outputting the results
echo "The maximum of $num1 and $num2 is $max";
echo "
";
echo "The minimum of $num1 and $num2 is $min";
In the above code, we have two numbers assigned to variables
$num1 and $num2. We then use the max() and min() functions to get the maximum and minimum of these numbers and store the results in variables $max and $min. Finally, we output the results using the echo function.
The output of the above code will be:
The maximum of 20 and 10 is 20
The minimum of 20 and 10 is 10
