Null Coalescing Operator Chains in PHP

Coalescing operators can be called one after another in a chain. In the following example, the variable will be assigned either the first element of the array, or the second element of the array, or a given string, if these elements do not exist:

<?php $elem = $arr['test1'] ?? $arr['test2'] ?? 'empty'; ?>

Rewrite the following code using the studied operator:

<?php if (isset($user['name'])) { $res = $user['name']; } elseif (isset($user['surname'])) { $res = $user['surname']; } else { $res = ''; } ?>
