Why Should I Learn PHP?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n


PHP is beginner-friendly. If you are a beginner, you can understand PHP without much effort.
PHP is one of the highest paid programming languages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

lets go for creating simple programs in php
\nhow to display the content using php tag:-<\/p>\n\n\n\n

how to give comment in php [ double back salesh \/\/ example: \/\/echo “hello word”;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<?php<\/p>\n\n\n\n

$message=”hello world”;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Function<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

PHP functions are similar to other programming languages. A function is a piece of code
\nwhich takes one more input in the form of parameter and does some processing and
\n returns a value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<?php<\/p>\n\n\n\n

         \/* Defining a\nPHP Function *\/<\/p>\n\n\n\n

         function\nwriteMessage() {<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            echo\n“You are really a nice person, Have a nice time!”;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

         }<\/p>\n\n\n\n

         \/* Calling a\nPHP Function *\/<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \nwriteMessage();<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      ?><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<?php<\/p>\n\n\n\n

         \/* Defining a\nPHP Function *\/<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    function display($name1,$name2)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

         }<\/p>\n\n\n\n

$name=”welcome to america”;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

echo “$name1 to $name2”;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

} ?><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<?php<\/p>\n\n\n\n

function simplemsg() {<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    echo “Hello\nworld!”;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

}<\/p>\n\n\n\n

simplemsg(); \/\/ call the function<\/p>\n\n\n\n

?><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<?php<\/p>\n\n\n\n

function familyName($fname, $year) {<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    echo “$fname\nRefsnes. Born in $year <br>”;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

}<\/p>\n\n\n\n

familyName(“Hege”, “1975”);<\/p>\n\n\n\n

familyName(“Stale”, “1978”);<\/p>\n\n\n\n

familyName(“Kai Jim”, “1983”);<\/p>\n\n\n\n

?><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Strings <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

What if you needed to add a single quote inside a single quoted string?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Just escape that\ncharacter with a back slash. \\’<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A string is collection of charactors .string is one of the\ndata types supported by php.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Escape Sequence             Meaning<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\\n           Line Break<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\\r             Carriage Return<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\\t            Tab Space<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\\\\            Backslash<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\\$            Dollar Sign<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\\”            Double Quotes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

example 1<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<?php<\/p>\n\n\n\n

echo “hello world”;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

echo”<br>”;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

echo”\\”hello world\\ “”;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

echo”\\n\\t hello world\\n”;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

?><\/p>\n\n\n\n

example 2<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<?php<\/p>\n\n\n\n

$display = “sam”;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

echo “My name is $display”;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

?><\/p>\n\n\n\n

example  3<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<?php<\/p>\n\n\n\n

$veg = ‘Apple’;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\/\/ echo “$veg”; # there’s no variable $fruits<\/p>\n\n\n\n

echo “{$veg}s”;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

?><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note: Out put data will be show with content with s <\/p>\n\n\n\n

as a Apples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

example 4<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<?php<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\/\/ both works<\/p>\n\n\n\n

echo “Hello <br>”;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

echo ‘Hello <br>’;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\/\/ escape sequences are not parsed in single quotes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

echo “World” .”<br>”; \/\/ outputs\n“World”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

echo ‘”World” <br>’; \/\/ outputs\n“World”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\/\/ variables are not parsed in single quotes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

$hello = “Hello”;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

echo “$hello World <br>”; \/\/ outputs Hello\nWorld<\/p>\n\n\n\n

echo ‘$hello World <br>’; \/\/ outputs $hello World                                                       ?><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Array <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Note:-<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An array stores multiple values in one single variable:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is an Array?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An array is a special variable, which can hold more than one\nvalue at a time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A list of items (a list of car names, for example), storing\nthe cars in single variables could look like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An array can be declared using the array() function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An array can be declared wrapped with [ and ].<\/p>\n\n\n\n

array are colection of data items store under a single name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indexed or Numeric Arrays: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An array with a numeric index where values are stored\nlinearly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Associative Arrays:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 An array with a\nstring index where instead of linear storage, each value can be assigned a\nspecific key.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Multidimensional Arrays:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 An array which contains single or multiple array within it and can be accessed via multiple indices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

example 1<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<?php<\/p>\n\n\n\n

$fee [“ramu”]= 500;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

echo $fee[“ramu”];<\/p>\n\n\n\n

?><\/p>\n\n\n\n

example 2<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<?php<\/p>\n\n\n\n

$fee [“ramu”]= 900;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

echo “rahul fee:”,$fee[“ramu”];<\/p>\n\n\n\n

?><\/p>\n\n\n\n

example 3<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<?php<\/p>\n\n\n\n

echo $fees \n[“ali”];<\/p>\n\n\n\n

?><\/p>\n\n\n\n

example 4<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<?php<\/p>\n\n\n\n

$vegetable = array(“pumking”, “chilli”,\n“redish”);<\/p>\n\n\n\n

echo “I like ” . $vegetable[0] . “, ” .\n$vegetable[1] . ” and ” . $vegetable[2] . “.”;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

?> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

example 5 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<?php <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\/\/ Defining a multidimensional array <\/p>\n\n\n\n

$favorites = array( <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    array( <\/p>\n\n\n\n

       \n“name” => “ali”, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

       \n“mob” => “0000000000”, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

       \n“email” => “ali@gmail.com”, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    ), <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    array( <\/p>\n\n\n\n

       \n“name” => “Monty”, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

       \n“mob” => “00000000000”, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

echo ” mobile number is: ” .\n$favorites[1][“mob”];<\/p>\n\n\n\n

?> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Numeric Array<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Arrays can store numbers, strings and any object but their index will be represented by numbers. By default array index starts from zero.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<?php \/* First method to create array. *\/ $numbers = array( 1, 2, 3, 4, 5); foreach( $numbers as $value ) { echo “Value is $value <br \/>”; } \/* Second method to create array. *\/ $numbers[0] = “one”; $numbers[1] = “two”; $numbers[2] = “three”; $numbers[3] = “four”; $numbers[4] = “five”; foreach( $numbers as $value ) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

{ echo “Value is $value <br \/>”; } ?><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Class and objects<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

paper-source:0;} div.WordSection1 {page:WordSection1;} –>  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Object is class type variable. the collection of object is called class. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

  class:- This is a programmer-defined data type, which includes local functions as well as local data.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Object – An individual instance of the data structure defined by a class.     Member Variable – These are the variables defined inside a class.     Member function – These are the function defined inside a class and are used to access object data. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<?php    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

class Myclass<\/p>\n\n\n\n

$myobj = new MyClass;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Notes:-  class\n—–class is keyword of php<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                Myclass—–is class name<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                $myobjet–  Here $myobj represents an object of the class\nMyclass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
