php Function Stream_Context_Get_Options
PHP has many built-in functions that you can use to perform common programming tasks. The real power of PHP, however, comes from the ability to create custom functions and extend its functionality beyond the standard library.
A function is a set of instructions that is executed at runtime. It’s a small piece of code that can be called multiple times to accomplish larger tasks. The main advantage of using a function is that it promotes modularity and code reusability by encapsulating an operation into a single piece of logic. It also improves code readability and comprehension by dividing complex operations into smaller, self-contained units.
php function stream_context_get_options
Stream contexts are used for reading and writing data to a file. They are the underlying mechanism for most of the core file operations (fopen(), file_get_contents(), etc). Optional options for the default context may be specified with stream_context_create() or with the stream_context_set_option() function. This function returns the set of options as an associative array of values in the format $arr['wrapper']['option'] = 'value'.
Wrappers are additional code that tell the stream how to handle specific protocols/encodings. There are a number of wrappers built into PHP by default (See Appendix M), and additional wrappers may be registered within a script using stream_wrapper_register(), or directly from an extension with stream_wrapper_add(). The list of registered wrappers can be retrieved with stream_context_get_wrappers().
Specifies the mode to open the stream ('r', 'r+', 'w', etc. - see the fopen() documentation for details). If not explicitly specified, the default mode is 'rw'.
