TECH6.0

Hi, I'm learning PHP for my project work and could not stop myself from telling all that PHP is so simple language! If you know C and C++ its not abig deal to learn PHP. Also would like to tell that i worked in JSP also but PHP is simple and less error prone than JSP.

Then you're a real god gifted programmar it seems.

So how long had you been doing it and what project have you done so far?

In some ways I think the "ease of use" associated with PHP goes a bit too far.

What I mean is that the PHP language is very lax, and generally allows you to do the same thing with variations in the syntax, and overall PHP is smart in trying to figure out what you meant or are doing.

I sorta went the other way around than you... I knew PHP before I started learning C++, and this had a somewhat major impact on the learning process because PHP gets you so accustomed to "getting away" with things that in other languages wouldn't work.

But yes, I do agree that it is a pretty easy language to use and work with... and I find that the greatest thing about it is that even if you know a lot, there is still so much more you can learn.

I migrated from Perl to PHP, so I also saw quite a bit in the ease of use directly because many tasks that might require 20 lines of code in Perl could be done with one or two in PHP.

I am impressed by your knowledge Sikosoft.. No doubt you're a solid programmar.

You took the same path as myself. I was encouraged by an associate and close friend to take up web development, I was originally going to be the designer but fell in love with the coding aspect.
My original thoughts were "Use PHP as a stepping stone to coding, learn an easier language and maybe I'll understand more complex languages easier", however it does quite the opposite. It kind of makes you wish you took up Java or C++ whilst you were a novice.

Though, it does give you a sense of syntax, you learn the basic..
if (condition) {
some code;
}

And all that jazz, and you're introduced to a lot of things that Visual Basic just cannot do (they STILL teach that in schools, ffs). But the way you can get away with so many things is kind of misleading..

@OP; You will find PHP a much easier, much "friendlier" language to use if you have a background in C++. If my memory serves me right, I remember reading somewhere that PHP was built with the syntax of C++ in mind. Just try not to get too accustomed to PHP, and remember to keep yourself refreshed and intune with C++.

Yes Defiantly PHP is very easy as well as the effective language.Its a server side scripting language and its a kind of the open source.It always working with the MYSQL as a database which is very simple.
