 The Zend Engine is the open-source scripting engine that powers the PHP programming language. It was originally developed by Zend Technologies, which is now part of Rogue Wave Software. The Zend Engine is the core component of PHP, responsible for parsing, compiling, and executing PHP code. Here are some key aspects of the Zend Engine:
-   - **Execution of PHP Code:** The Zend Engine is responsible for interpreting and executing PHP code. It takes PHP scripts, parses them, and runs the instructions in those scripts to generate dynamic web content.
