SYNOPSIS

       string strval (mixed  $var)

DESCRIPTION

	Get the string value of a variable. See the documentation on string for more information on converting to string.

	This function performs no formatting on the returned value. If you are looking for a way to format a numeric value as a string, please see
       sprintf(3) or number_format(3).

PARAMETERS

	      o $var
		- The variable that is being converted to a string. $var may be any scalar type or an  object  that  implements  the  __toString()
		method. You cannot use strval(3) on arrays or on objects that do not implement the __toString() method.

RETURN VALUES

	The string value of $var.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      strval(3) example using PHP 5's magic __toString() method.

	      <?php
	      class StrValTest
	      {
		  public function __toString()
		  {
		      return __CLASS__;
		  }
	      }

	      // Prints 'StrValTest'
	      echo strval(new StrValTest);
	      ?>
