I have heard of string 'literals' and numeric 'literals' -- and now I learn that they are different from, for instance, strings read from a file or accepted from a form. Is there a resource that discusses these different programming constructs? The PHP manual mentions string literals but assumes that the reader already knows what they are (i.e., doesn't define them opposed to other types of inputs -- http://us4.php.net/manual/ro/html/language.types.string.html).
