Are PHP scripts processed before HTML rendering, making code segments irrelevant except for functions/methods?

PHP scripts are processed on the server before the HTML is rendered on the client-side. This means that any PHP code within the script will be executed before the HTML is displayed. Code segments within the PHP script that are not within functions or methods will still be relevant and executed accordingly. 

<?php
// PHP code will be processed before HTML rendering
$variable = "Hello World";
echo $variable; // This will output "Hello World" on the webpage
?>
