The first parameter we use in the date_add() function is our created custom date. Read this article to know how to create a custom date.
And, in the second parameter an another function which is date_interval_create_from_date_string(). This function is too long. You can give value in its argument like this to add those in the round figure in custom date-
- 5 days
- 7 months
- 4 years
The date_add() method returns an object.
Before getting the result, you need to define the format of the final date. So access format() method from the object.
