The behaviour of the or operator in PHP

Question

I\'m trying to understand the behavior of or operator. Please see the below examples:

$e = false || true;
var_dump($e);

Outpu

Answer 1

$foo or $foo = 5;

Suppose let say $foo=true or $foo=5;

here it will not evaluate after or operator expresion so output will be $foo=1 Now the expression is

$foo=false or $foo=5;

Here it will evaluate after or as = higher precedence so $foo as of which of which it will evaluate $foo=5so output will be 5 But when we evaluate $foo=false or true so here it will consider = higher precedence so the output will be $foo=false but whole expression will evaluate as true because false or true becomes false
