What is the proper way to output a string in PHP?

When outputting a string in PHP, the most common and proper way is to use the `echo` or `print` language constructs. These constructs are used to output strings or variables to the browser. You can also use the shorthand `<?= ?>` tags to directly output a string without using `echo` or `print`. 

&lt;?php
// Using echo to output a string
echo &quot;Hello, World!&quot;;

// Using print to output a string
print &quot;Hello, World!&quot;;

// Using shorthand &lt;?= ?&gt; tags to output a string
&lt;?= &quot;Hello, World!&quot;;
?&gt;
