Learning the fundamentals of PHP

“

- [Kevin] Welcome to PHP Essential Training. My name is Kevin Skogland. PHP allows writing simple code for webpages. If you've been using HTML to develop websites, PHP is a great next step. In this course, we're going to focus on learning the fundamentals of the PHP language. We will learn how to embed PHP code into an HTML page to output dynamic text. We will review the basic PHP data types, such as variables, strings, and arrays. Then we will learn about the different control structures in PHP, such as logical expressions and loops, which give us control over how our code executes. We will cover many of PHP's built-in functions but also learn to define our own custom functions. By the end of this course, you'll have the basics you need to start adding PHP code to your webpages. Let's get started learning PHP.
