    Hi guys,

    Today I'm learning about serialization of data. While digging mysql I saw two types of data, as shown in image below. Can anyone tell me whats the difference in both?

    why don't you check it out yourself.
    var_dump(unserialize('a:2:{i:0;i:1;i:3;}'));
var_dump(unserialize('s:14:"a:1:{i:0;i:3;}"'));
