when to use "echo" and when to use "print"

ok i know this sounds dumb but im new to php and dont understand when to use each one. they seem the same to me . any advice pleasE?

 

Both do the same thing. Difference is, echo does not have a return value.
With print, you can capture the return value. (hav'nt seen any code doing it though !)
I use print , just because of my C, java background.

Here is a link from php manual on this topic
