Clone + Rename file with PHP

Question

how do I clone and rename a file with php.

I need to take.

thumb_123.jpg

Copy it.

Rename it to thumb_456.jpg

I can do the renaming just fine with rename(). Its the copying that I don't get.

Hurray for the easy-to-find PHP documentation. – Lightness Races in Orbit Mar 09 '11 at 11:55
i came here after reading the documentation, wish it was said that we can give it a different filename when copying. Thanks for the clarification Mark! – Robert Sinclair Feb 02 '17 at 20:11
