PHP uses automatic memory management, meaning the engine allocates and frees memory for variables without requiring manual control from the developer.

PHP's memory model is designed to simplify development while remaining efficient internally. Every time you assign a value to a variable, PHP automatically allocates memory. When the variable is no longer needed, that memory is released and reused. This approach reduces the risk of memory leaks. Understanding how PHP manages memory is important for large or long-running applications where performance and resource usage matter.
