How can multiple text files be read simultaneously in PHP?

To read multiple text files simultaneously in PHP, you can use the `glob()` function to get an array of file paths matching a specified pattern. Then, you can loop through each file path and read its contents using functions like `file_get_contents()` or `fopen()`.

$files = glob('path/to/files/*.txt');

foreach ($files as $file) {
    $content = file_get_contents($file);
    echo $content;
}
