</body>
</html>
<?php
$fruits = array ("apple", "orange", "strawberry", "banana", "peach", "avocado", "kiwi") ;
$result = implode (",", $fruits) ;
print_r ($result) ;
echo "<hr />" ;
function reduction ($carry, $item) {
    $carry .= "$item, " ;
    return $carry ;
}
$str = array_reduce ($fruits, "reduction") ;
print_r ($str) ;
?>
  1. First, we write <! DOCTYPE html> which we used as the instruction to the web browser about what version of HTML file is written in.
  2. Secondly, the <html> tag is used to indicate the beginning of an HTML document.
  3. As mentioned above, the <head> tag contains information about the web page. In this tag, a <title> tag is used which helps us to specify a webpage title.

  5. <style> tag to add CSS to the HTML page
  6. Thirdly, the <body> tag is used to define the webpage body. All the contents to show on the website are written here.
  7. <h1> tag used to add heading here.
  8. Close the HTML tag with </html>
  9. <?php tag to write the php.
  10. Creating an array named $fruits first
  11. implode() to convert it into string.
  12. Using echo to display the string
  13. Creating e function named reduction to return every item of the array
  14. Using array_reduce() to convert the array elements into a string
