How can i print Console.log( ) in PHP?

The principle is simple. PHP is a backend environment, it draws code into pieces.

<script> 
 console.log('this is a Variable:', $variable);
</script>

If we want to write console.log( ) like above then,

echo "<script>console.log('this is a Variable: " . $variable. "' );</script>";

So easy right? If it is little hard to understand than you can break down it.

echo "<script>"
echo "console.log('this is a Variable: " . $variable. "' );"
echo "</script>"

This way, you will be able to understand the principle of PHP to output pieces one by one.
