I was reading the difference between include and require in php here.

require will throw a PHP Fatal Error if the file cannot be loaded.

I created a test file in php to get more understanding about the difference but both of them do not show anything(I do not see any error in require).

Please help me out. Thanks

    Your testing code is wrong, $value will never be greater than 10. Try this and you will have your Fatal Error:

    <?php
require("boom.php"); // no such file exits in real
?>
