Obfuscation - Is it foolproof way to make php code unreadable?

Question

I am planning to obfuscate my php code, so as to make it unreadable ! Is it the foolproof way to make as such, or is there any method so that another user cannot view my php code ?

If they can read your PHP when you don't want them to, you have far more significant problems. Suggest you google Obfuscation Security, you'll find plenty of good arguments against this fallacy. — Tony Hopkinson, Apr 26 '14 at 12:57
