Rules for PHP variables: A variable starts with the  $  sign, followed by the name of the variable A variable name must start with a letter or the underscore character A variable name cannot start with a number A variable name can only contain alpha-numeric characters and underscores (A-z, 0-9, and _ ) Variable names are case-sensitive ( $age  and  $AGE  are two different variables) NOTE: Remember that PHP variable names are case-sensitive!
