    Study Notes

    Introduction to Web Development

    • PHP is a widely used scripting language designed for web development.
    • Operators in PHP perform operations on variables or values.

    PHP Operators

    • Types of PHP Operators include:
      • Arithmetic Operators: Perform basic mathematical operations.
      • String Operators: Used to concatenate strings.
      • Assignment Operators: Assign values to variables.
      • Array Operators: Manage arrays.
      • Bitwise Operators: Perform operations on binary numbers.
      • Type Operators: Used for type checking.
      • Comparison Operators: Compare values.
      • Execution Operators: Execute external programs.
      • Incrementing/Decrementing Operators: Increment or decrement variables.
      • Error Control Operators: Suppress error messages.

    Categorization of Operators by Operands

    • Unary Operators: Operate on a single operand; examples include increment (++) and decrement (--).
    • Binary Operators: Operate on two operands; typical examples are addition (+), subtraction (-), and multiplication (*).
    • Ternary Operators: Operate on three operands; example includes the ternary conditional operator (?:).

    PHP Arithmetic Operators

    • Used for performing calculations:
      • Addition (+): Combines two numbers.
      • Subtraction (-): Finds the difference between numbers.
      • Multiplication (*): Calculates the product.
      • Division (/): Computes the quotient.
      • Modulus (%): Returns the remainder of division.
      • Exponentiation ()**: Raises a number to the power of another.

    PHP Assignment Operators

    • Facilitate assigning values to variables efficiently:
      • Basic Assignment (=): Assigns the value of the right operand to the left.
      • Add then Assign (+=): Adds right operand to left operand and assigns the result.
      • Subtract then Assign (-=): Subtracts right operand from left operand and assigns the result.
      • Multiply then Assign (*=): Multiplies operands and assigns the product.
      • Divide then Assign (/=): Divides left operand by the right and assigns the quotient.
      • Modulus Assignment (%=): Assigns the remainder of division between operands.

    PHP Comparison Operators

    • Used to compare two values for equality or difference:
      • Equal (==): Returns TRUE if values are equal.
      • Identical (===): Returns TRUE if values are equal and of the same type.
      • Not Identical (!==): Returns TRUE if values are not equal or not of the same type.
      • Not equal (!=): Returns TRUE if values are not equal.
      • Less than (<): Returns TRUE if left operand is smaller.
      • Greater than (>): Returns TRUE if left operand is larger.

    Control Structures

    • Control structures such as IF and SWITCH statements are critical for handling program logic and flow.
