Verify
Verify may refer to any of the following:
1. Verify is a Microsoft Windows command line command. See our verify command page for further information about this command.
2. In general, verify is the action or process of proving something is true. For example, when programming, you may use a conditional statement to verify if a condition is true. For example, in the following code, the program verifies if the variable $myval equals 10.
if ($myval == 10) {
print "The value equals 10";
}
else {
print "Value is not equal to 10";
}
3. With social networks (e.g., Facebook, Instagram, Twitter), a verified badge or verified indicates your account has a small check mark next to its name and is verified as authentic. These marks are for brands and people who might be impersonated and let those know when searching for someone or something whose account is authentic. The brand or person must be notable (someone or something commonly searched for) and apply with the social network to get these marks. The application often requires many verification steps, including verifying that the name you're using matches a government-issued ID.
