Laravel : how to check if a specific value was selected

Question

I have a very newbie question in Laravel.

In the controller I want to create something like :

if ($Q_type = "specific Value selected by the end user in a radio button") 
{
    do an action
}

what is the syntax to check this specific value ?

You can do it in the following way:

if(request()->Q_type == "blue") 
{
    return 'blue';
}
