title: Advantages / inconveniences of heredoc vs nowdoc in php
body: <p>As a newbie, I have been advised to preferably use heredoc compared to too many nested codes (see <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11111128/unexpected-t-else-in-php-code">Unexpected T_ELSE in php code</a>).</p>
  
  <p>But I can't manage to understand if there is a significant difference between heredoc and nowdoc.</p>
  
  <p>What would be the advantages for heredoc and nowdoc compared to the other one that would be important for a newbie to understand (i.e. not very minor advantages but important to understand for me).</p>
