if (filter_var($sanitized_a, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)) {
echo "This (a) sanitized email address is considered valid.\n";
}
$sanitized_b = filter_var($b, FILTER_SANITIZE_EMAIL);
if (filter_var($sanitized_b, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)) {
echo "This sanitized email address is considered valid.";
} else {
echo "This (b) sanitized email address is considered invalid.\n";
}
$sanitized_c = filter_var($c, FILTER_SANITIZE_EMAIL);
if (filter_var($sanitized_c, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)) {
echo "This (c) sanitized email address is considered valid.\n";
