1.2.1455. Yoda Comparison¶
Yoda comparison is a way to write conditions which places literal values on the left side.
The objective is to avoid mistaking a comparison to an assignation. If the comparison operator is mistaken, but the literal is on the left, then an error will be triggered, instead of a silent bug.
.
<?php
if (1 == $a) {
// Then condition
}
?>
