lcfirst(): first char to lower case
Lowercase only the first character
lcfirst() changes the first ASCII letter to lowercase and leaves the remaining string unchanged. For non-ASCII case conversion, use the appropriate multibyte-aware approach.
$value = 'HelloWorld';
echo lcfirst($value); // helloWorldStart with this current pattern. The examples below are retained, corrected where necessary, and expanded for additional variations and output.
